Optimally weighted average derivative effects

Oliver Hines, Karla Diaz-Ordaz, Stijn Vansteelandt

Weighted average derivative effects (WADEs) are nonparametric estimands with uses in economics and causal inference. Debiased WADE estimators typically require learning the conditi…

Variable importance measures for heterogeneous treatment effects

Oliver J. Hines, Karla Diaz-Ordaz, Stijn Vansteelandt

Motivated by applications in precision medicine and treatment effect heterogeneity, recent research has focused on estimating conditional average treatment effects (CATEs) using ma…

Parameterising the effect of a continuous treatment using average derivative effects

Oliver J. Hines, Karla Diaz-Ordaz, Stijn Vansteelandt

The average treatment effect (ATE) is commonly used to quantify the main effect of a binary treatment on an outcome. Extensions to continuous treatments are usually based on the do…

Demystifying statistical learning based on efficient influence functions

Oliver Hines, Oliver Dukes, Karla Diaz-Ordaz +1

Evaluation of treatment effects and more general estimands is typically achieved via parametric modelling, which is unsatisfactory since model misspecification is likely. Data-adap…

Robust Inference for Mediated Effects in Partially Linear Models

Oliver Hines, Stijn Vansteelandt, Karla Diaz-Ordaz

We consider mediated effects of an exposure, X on an outcome, Y, via a mediator, M, under no unmeasured confounding assumptions in the setting where models for the conditional expe…
