Unveiling the Potential of Robustness in Selecting Conditional Average Treatment Effect Estimators
以稳健性为目标选择条件平均处理效应估计量
The growing demand for personalized decision-making has led to a surge of interest in estimating the Conditional Average Treatment Effect (CATE). Various types of CATE estimators have been developed with advancements in machine learning and causal inference. However, selecting the desirable CATE estimator through a conventional model validation procedure remains impractical due to the absence of counterfactual outcomes in observational data. Existing approaches for CATE…
