An Exponential Endogenous Switching Regression with Correlated Random Coefficients

open access: yesEconometrics, 2021
This paper presents a method for estimating the average treatment effects (ATE) of an exponential endogenous switching model where the coefficients of covariates in the structural equation are random and correlated with the binary treatment variable. The

Comparison of Propensity Score Weighting Methods to Remove Selection Bias in Average Treatment Effect Estimates

open access: yesInternational Journal of Turkish Education Sciences, 2023
In this Monte Carlo simulation study, the performance of six different propensity score methods implemented through weighting cases was investigated: inverse probability of treatment weighting, truncated inverse probability of treatment weighting ...

Information Bottleneck for Estimating Treatment Effects with Systematically Missing Covariates

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
Estimating the effects of an intervention from high-dimensional observational data is a challenging problem due to the existence of confounding. The task is often further complicated in healthcare applications where a set of observations may be entirely ...

Stress-resilient maize hybrid adoption factors and impact: Evidence from rain-fed agroecologies of Karnataka state, India

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2022
Drought is one of the major abiotic constraints that adversely affect maize production in the rain-fed agro-environment in the Asian tropics. In view of the recurrent drought, stress-resilient (SR) maize hybrids were developed and deployed to minimize ...

High-Dimensional Regression Adjustment Estimation for Average Treatment Effect with Highly Correlated Covariates

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
Regression adjustment is often used to estimate average treatment effect (ATE) in randomized experiments. Recently, some penalty-based regression adjustment methods have been proposed to handle the high-dimensional problem.

Causal effect on a target population: A sensitivity analysis to handle missing covariates

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2022
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are often considered the gold standard for estimating causal effect, but they may lack external validity when the population eligible to the RCT is substantially different from the target population.
