Eric J. Tchetgen Tchetgen, Ilya Shpitser
While estimation of the marginal (total) causal effect of a point exposure on an outcome is arguably the most common objective of experimental and observational studies in the heal…
Parameter and Structure Learning in Nested Markov Models
Ilya Shpitser, Thomas S. Richardson, James M. Robins +1
The constraints arising from DAG models with latent variables can be naturally represented by means of acyclic directed mixed graphs (ADMGs). Such graphs contain directed and bidir…
