Causal Survival Forests with Negative Controls
Zijun Gao, Kyoungeui Hong, Leyi Ma +3
We study heterogeneous treatment-effect (HTE) estimation in observational survival studies commonly associated with both censored outcomes and unmeasured confounding. We integrate…
Identifying Strongly Lensed Gravitational Waves with the Third-generation Detectors
Zijun Gao, Kai Liao, Lilan Yang +1
The joint detection of GW signals by a network of instruments will increase the detecting ability of faint and far GW signals with higher signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), which could…
Simultaneous Hypothesis Testing Using Internal Negative Controls with An Application to Proteomics
Zijun Gao, Qingyuan Zhao
Negative control is a common technique in scientific investigations and broadly refers to the situation where a null effect (''negative result'') is expected. Motivated by a real p…
LinCDE: Conditional Density Estimation via Lindsey's Method
Zijun Gao, Trevor Hastie
Conditional density estimation is a fundamental problem in statistics, with scientific and practical applications in biology, economics, finance and environmental studies, to name…
Estimating Heterogeneous Treatment Effects for General Responses
Zijun Gao, Trevor Hastie
Heterogeneous treatment effect models allow us to compare treatments at subgroup and individual levels, and are of increasing popularity in applications like personalized medicine,…
Assessment of Heterogeneous Treatment Effect Estimation Accuracy via Matching
Zijun Gao, Trevor Hastie, Robert Tibshirani
We study the assessment of the accuracy of heterogeneous treatment effect (HTE) estimation, where the HTE is not directly observable so standard computation of prediction errors is…
Minimax Optimal Nonparametric Estimation of Heterogeneous Treatment Effects
Zijun Gao, Yanjun Han
A central goal of causal inference is to detect and estimate the treatment effects of a given treatment or intervention on an outcome variable of interest, where a member known as…
Batched Multi-armed Bandits Problem
Zijun Gao, Yanjun Han, Zhimei Ren +1
In this paper, we study the multi-armed bandit problem in the batched setting where the employed policy must split data into a small number of batches. While the minimax regret for…
