干扰下不依赖暴露映射的通用因果推断框架AI 解读

We develop a general framework for design-based causal inference under interference in cluster experiments conducted via two-stage randomization on a network of interconnected units, without relying on exposure mapping assumptions, exclusion of cross-cluster interference, or Bernoulli treatment assignments. Within this framework, we establish a complete characterization of linear weighted estimators (LW) as defined by Godambe (1955) that achieve identification of various…

This paper reexamines Abadie and Imbens (2016)'s work on propensity score matching for average treatment effect estimation. We explore the asymptotic behavior of these estimators when the number of nearest neighbors, $M$, grows with the sample size. It is shown, hardly surprising but technically nontrivial, that the modified estimators can improve upon the original fixed-$M$ estimators in terms of efficiency. Additionally, we demonstrate the potential to attain the…
