Targeted Deep Architectures: A TMLE-Based Framework for Robust Causal Inference in Neural Networks
Yi Li, David Mccoy, Nolan Gunter +3
Modern deep neural networks are powerful predictive tools yet often lack valid inference for causal parameters, such as treatment effects or entire survival curves. While framework…

Score-Preserving Targeted Maximum Likelihood Estimation
Noel Pimentel, Alejandro Schuler, Mark van der Laan
Targeted maximum likelihood estimators (TMLEs) are asymptotically optimal among regular, asymptotically linear estimators. In small samples, however, we may be far from "asymptopia…
