Joint sufficient dimension reduction and estimation of conditional and average treatment effects [PDF]

open access: yesBiometrika, 2017
The estimation of treatment effects based on observational data usually involves multiple confounders, and dimension reduction is often desirable and sometimes inevitable. We first clarify the definition of a central subspace that is relevant for the efficient estimation of average treatment effects.

Generalization bounds and algorithms for estimating conditional average treatment effect of dosage

open access: yesCoRR, 2022
We investigate the task of estimating the conditional average causal effect of treatment-dosage pairs from a combination of observational data and assumptions on the causal relationships in the underlying system. This has been a longstanding challenge for fields of study such as epidemiology or economics that require a treatment-dosage pair to make ...

Benign-Overfitting in Conditional Average Treatment Effect Prediction with Linear Regression

open access: yesCoRR, 2022
We study the benign overfitting theory in the prediction of the conditional average treatment effect (CATE), with linear regression models. As the development of machine learning for causal inference, a wide range of large-scale models for causality are gaining attention.

The impact of a cash transfer programme on tuberculosis treatment success rate: a quasi-experimental study in Brazil

open access: yesBMJ Global Health, 2019
Background Evidence suggests that social protection policies such as Brazil’s Bolsa Família Programme (BFP), a governmental conditional cash transfer, may play a role in tuberculosis (TB) elimination. However, study limitations hamper conclusions.

Debiased machine learning of conditional average treatment effects and other causal functions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Econometrics Journal, 2020
Summary This paper provides estimation and inference methods for the best linear predictor (approximation) of a structural function, such as conditional average structural and treatment effects, and structural derivatives, based on modern machine learning tools.
