Pragmatic DML with AI-Learned Representations

Andres Aradillas Fernandez, Victor Chernozhukov, Carlos Cinelli +5

Text, images, and other rich covariates are increasingly compressed into AI-learned representations and then used as controls in causal analysis. We study when this approach is val…

Sensitivity Analysis for Causal ML: A Use Case at Booking.com

Philipp Bach, Victor Chernozhukov, Carlos Cinelli +4

Causal Machine Learning has emerged as a powerful tool for flexibly estimating causal effects from observational data in both industry and academia. However, causal inference from…

Sensitivity Analysis for Treatment Effects in Difference-in-Differences Models using Riesz Representation

Philipp Bach, Sven Klaassen, Jannis Kueck +2

Difference-in-differences (DiD) is one of the most popular approaches for empirical research in economics, political science, and beyond. Identification in these models is based on…

Effect Identification and Unit Categorization in the Multi-Score Regression Discontinuity Design with Application to LED Manufacturing

Philipp Alexander Schwarz, Oliver Schacht, Sven Klaassen +2

RDD (Regression discontinuity design) is a widely used framework for identifying and estimating causal effects at the cutoff of a single running variable. In practice, however, dec…
