Tyranny-of-the-minority regression adjustment in randomized experiments

Xin Lu, Hanzhong Liu

Regression adjustment is widely used for the analysis of randomized experiments to improve the estimation efficiency of the treatment effect. This paper reexamines a weighted regre…

Rerandomization and covariate adjustment in split-plot designs

Wenqi Shi, Anqi Zhao, Hanzhong Liu

The split-plot design arises from agricultural sciences with experimental units, also known as subplots, nested within groups known as whole plots. It assigns the whole-plot interv…

Design-based theory for cluster rerandomization

Xin Lu, Tianle Liu, Hanzhong Liu +1

Complete randomization balances covariates on average, but covariate imbalance often exists in finite samples. Rerandomization can ensure covariate balance in the realized experime…

Pair-switching rerandomization

Ke Zhu, Hanzhong Liu

Rerandomization discards assignments with covariates unbalanced in the treatment and control groups to improve estimation and inference efficiency. However, the acceptance-rejectio…

Randomization-based joint central limit theorem and efficient covariate adjustment in stratified factorial experiments

Hanzhong Liu, Jiyang Ren, Yuehan Yang

Randomized block factorial experiments are widely used in industrial engineering, clinical trials, and social science. Researchers often use a linear model and analysis of covarian…

A general theory of regression adjustment for covariate-adaptive randomization: OLS, Lasso, and beyond

Hanzhong Liu, Fuyi Tu, Wei Ma

We consider the problem of estimating and inferring treatment effects in randomized experiments. In practice, stratified randomization, or more generally, covariate-adaptive random…

Rerandomization in stratified randomized experiments

Xinhe Wang, Tingyu Wang, Hanzhong Liu

Stratification and rerandomization are two well-known methods used in randomized experiments for balancing the baseline covariates. Renowned scholars in experimental design have re…

Confidence intervals for parameters in high-dimensional sparse vector autoregression

Ke Zhu, Hanzhong Liu

Vector autoregression (VAR) models are widely used to analyze the interrelationship between multiple variables over time. Estimation and inference for the transition matrices of VA…

Regression analysis for covariate-adaptive randomization: A robust and efficient inference perspective

Wei Ma, Fuyi Tu, Hanzhong Liu

Linear regression is arguably the most fundamental statistical model; however, the validity of its use in randomized clinical trials, despite being common practice, has never been…

Regression-adjusted average treatment effect estimates in stratified randomized experiments

Hanzhong Liu, Yuehan Yang

Researchers often use linear regression to analyse randomized experiments to improve treatment effect estimation by adjusting for imbalances of covariates in the treatment and cont…

Heterogeneous Treatment Effect Estimation through Deep Learning

Ran Chen, Hanzhong Liu

Estimating heterogeneous treatment effect is an important task in causal inference with wide application fields. It has also attracted increasing attention from machine learning co…

Penalized regression adjusted causal effect estimates in high dimensional randomized experiments

Hanzhong Liu, Yuehan Yang

Regression adjustments are often considered by investigators to improve the estimation efficiency of causal effect in randomized experiments when there exists many pre-experiment c…

A Bootstrap Lasso + Partial Ridge Method to Construct Confidence Intervals for Parameters in High-dimensional Sparse Linear Models

Hanzhong Liu, Xin Xu, Jingyi Jessica Li

Constructing confidence intervals for the coefficients of high-dimensional sparse linear models remains a challenge, mainly because of the complicated limiting distributions of the…

Lasso adjustments of treatment effect estimates in randomized experiments

Adam Bloniarz, Hanzhong Liu, Cun-Hui Zhang +2

We provide a principled way for investigators to analyze randomized experiments when the number of covariates is large. Investigators often use linear multivariate regression to an…

Asymptotic Properties of Lasso+mLS and Lasso+Ridge in Sparse High-dimensional Linear Regression

Hanzhong Liu, Bin Yu

We study the asymptotic properties of Lasso+mLS and Lasso+Ridge under the sparse high-dimensional linear regression model: Lasso selecting predictors and then modified Least Square…
