FlowSDR: Sufficient Dimension Reduction via Conditional Normalizing Flows
Yuexiao Dong, Kenichiro Mcalinn, Edoardo Airoldi +1
Sufficient dimension reduction (SDR) seeks a low-dimensional linear projection of predictors that preserves the conditional distribution of the response. Existing methods target th…
Dynamic causal inference with time series data
Tanique Schaffe-Odeleye, KÅsaku Takanashi, Vishesh Karwa +2
We generalize the potential outcome framework to time series with an intervention by defining causal effects on stochastic processes. Interventions in dynamic systems alter not onl…
On the admissibility of Horvitz-Thompson estimator for estimating causal effects under network interference
Vishesh Karwa, Edoardo M. Airoldi
The Horvitz-Thompson (H-T) estimator is widely used for estimating network causal effects. We study its optimality properties by embedding it in the class of all linear estimators.…
Educational Intervention Re-Wires Social Interactions in Isolated Village Networks
Marios Papamichalis, Laura Forastiere, Edoardo M. Airoldi +1
Social networks shape behavior, disseminate information, and undergird collective action within communities. Consequently, they can be very valuable in the design of effective inte…
Inward and Outward Spillover Effects of One Unit's Treatment on Network Neighbors under Partial Interference
Fei Fang, Edoardo M Airoldi, Laura Forastiere
In settings where interference is present, direct effects are commonly defined as the average effect of a unit's treatment on their own outcome while fixing the treatment status or…
