A clarification on the links between potential outcomes and do-interventions
Most of the scientific literature on causal modeling considers the structural framework of Pearl and the potential-outcome framework of Rubin to be formally equivalent and therefore interchangeably uses do-interventions and the potential-outcome ...

Generalized coarsened confounding for causal effects: a large-sample framework
There has been widespread use of causal inference methods for the rigorous analysis of observational studies and to identify policy evaluations. In this article, we consider a class of generalized coarsened procedures for confounding.

Current philosophical perspectives on drug approval in the real world
The evidence-based medicine approach to causal medical inference is the dominant account among medical methodologists. Competing approaches originating in the philosophy of medicine seek to challenge this account.

Foundations of causal discovery on groups of variables
Discovering causal relationships from observational data is a challenging task that relies on assumptions connecting statistical quantities to graphical or algebraic causal models.

Combining observational and experimental data for causal inference considering data privacy
Combining observational and experimental data for causal inference can improve treatment effect estimation. However, many observational datasets cannot be released due to data privacy considerations, so one researcher may not have access to both ...

Valid causal inference with unobserved confounding in high-dimensional settings
Various methods have recently been proposed to estimate causal effects with confidence intervals that are uniformly valid over a set of data-generating processes when high-dimensional nuisance models are estimated by post-model-selection or machine ...

Minimax rates and adaptivity in combining experimental and observational data
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are the gold standard for evaluating the causal effect of a treatment; however, they often have limited sample sizes and sometimes poor generalizability.
