摘要:This work is motivated by the following problem: Can we identify the disease-causing gene in a patient affected by a monogenic disorder? This problem is an instance of root cause discovery. Specifically, we aim to identify the intervened variable in one interventional sample using a set of observational samples as reference. We consider a linear structural equation model where the causal ordering is unknown. We begin by examining a simple method that uses squared z-scores and characterize the ...

摘要:In a variety of applications, including nonparametric instrumental variable (NPIV) analysis, proximal causal inference under unmeasured confounding, and analysis of missing-not-at-random data with shadow variables, we are interested in inference on a continuous linear functional (e.g. average causal effects) of nuisance functions (e.g. NPIV regression) defined by conditional moment restrictions. These nuisance functions are often weakly identified, meaning the moment restrictions are ill-posed...

摘要:We provide a novel characterization of augmented balancing weights, also known as automatic debiased machine learning. These popular doubly robust estimators combine outcome modelling with balancing weights-weights that achieve covariate balance directly instead of estimating and inverting the propensity score. When the outcome and weighting models are both linear in some (possibly infinite) basis, we show that the augmented estimator is equivalent to a single linear model with coefficients th...

摘要:We consider the problem of performing parameter and state inference in a state-space model (SSM) parametrized by a static parameter theta. A popular idea to address this problem consists of incorporating theta in the state of the system and allowing its time evolution, modelled as a Markov chain (theta t)t >= 1. This proxy model defines a so-called self-organizing SSM (SO-SSM) to which one may apply standard particle filters. However, the practical implementation of this idea in a theoreticall...
