Sufficient and insufficient conditions for the stochastic convergence of Cesàro means
Aurélien F. Bibaut, Alex Luedtke, Mark J. van der Laan
We study the stochastic convergence of the Cesàro mean of a sequence of random variables. These arise naturally in statistical problems that have a sequential component, where the…
Targeted Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Community-based Causal Effect of Community-Level Stochastic Interventions
Chi Zhang, Jennifer Ahern, Mark J. van der Laan
Unlike the commonly used parametric regression models such as mixed models, that can easily violate the required statistical assumptions and result in invalid statistical inference…
tmleCommunity: A R Package Implementing Target Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Community-level Data
Chi Zhang, Jennifer Ahern, Mark J. van der Laan +1
Over the past years, many applications aim to assess the causal effect of treatments assigned at the community level, while data are still collected at the individual level among i…
