Detecting Confounding in Multivariate Linear Models via Spectral Analysis
We study a model where one target variable Y$Y$ is correlated with a vector X:=(X1,…,Xd)$\textbf{X}:=(X_1,\dots,X_d)$ of predictor variables being potential causes of Y$Y$.

Estimation and Inference in an Ecological Inference Model [PDF]
AbstractWe interpret an ecological inference model as a treatment effects model in which the outcomes of interest and the conditional covariates come from separate datasets. In this setting, the counterfactual distributions and policy parameters of interest are only partially identified under a selection on observables assumption.
