Causal multi-modal AI for personalized chemosensitivity prediction

Dhruva Biswas, Jeroen Berrevoets, Alec McClean +31

Chemotherapy improves survival for some patients with breast cancer, but doctors cannot reliably predict who. Current guidelines rely on recurrence scores as a proxy for treatment…

Longitudinal weighted and trimmed treatment effects with flip interventions

Alec McClean, Alexander W. Levis, Nicholas Williams +1

Weighting and trimming are popular methods for addressing positivity violations in causal inference. While well-studied with single-timepoint data, standard methods do not easily g…

Stochastic interventions, sensitivity analysis, and optimal transport

Alexander W. Levis, Edward H. Kennedy, Alec McClean +2

Recent methodological research in causal inference has focused on effects of stochastic interventions, which assign treatment randomly, often according to subject-specific covariat…

Calibrated sensitivity models

Alec McClean, Zach Branson, Edward H. Kennedy

In causal inference, sensitivity models assess how unmeasured confounders could alter causal analyses, but the sensitivity parameter -- which quantifies the degree of unmeasured co…

Double Cross-fit Doubly Robust Estimators: Beyond Series Regression

Alec McClean, Sivaraman Balakrishnan, Edward H. Kennedy +1

Doubly robust estimators with cross-fitting have gained popularity in causal inference due to their favorable structure-agnostic error guarantees. However, when additional structur…

Incremental Propensity Score Effects for Criminology: An Application Assessing the Relationship Between Homelessness, Behavioral Health Problems, and Recidivism

Leah A. Jacobs, Alec McClean, Zach Branson +2

This study examines the relationship between homelessness and recidivism among people on probation with and without behavioral health problems. The study also illustrates a new way…

Nonparametric Estimation of Conditional Incremental Effects

Alec McClean, Zach Branson, Edward H. Kennedy

Conditional effect estimation has great scientific and policy importance because interventions may impact subjects differently depending on their characteristics. Most research has…

Incremental causal effects: an introduction and review

Matteo Bonvini, Alec McClean, Zach Branson +1

In this chapter, we review the class of causal effects based on incremental propensity scores interventions proposed by Kennedy [2019]. The aim of incremental propensity score inte…
