Estimating heterogeneous effects of continuous exposures using Bayesian tree ensembles: revisiting the impact of abortion rates on crime

Spencer Woody, Carlos M. Carvalho, P. Richard Hahn +1

In estimating the causal effect of a continuous exposure or treatment, it is important to control for all confounding factors. However, most existing methods require parametric spe…

Sparse Mean-Variance Portfolios: A Penalized Utility Approach

David Puelz, P. Richard Hahn, Carlos M. Carvalho

This paper considers mean-variance optimization under uncertainty, specifically when one desires a sparsified set of optimal portfolio weights. From the standpoint of a Bayesian in…
