Semiparametric theory for causal mediation analysis: Efficiency bounds, multiple robustness and sensitivity analysis
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…
Identification of Conditional Interventional Distributions
Ilya Shpitser, Judea Pearl
The subject of this paper is the elucidation of effects of actions from causal assumptions represented as a directed graph, and statistical knowledge given as a probability distrib…
What Counterfactuals Can Be Tested
Ilya Shpitser, Judea Pearl
Counterfactual statements, e.g., "my headache would be gone had I taken an aspirin" are central to scientific discourse, and are formally interpreted as statements derived from "al…
Effects of Treatment on the Treated: Identification and Generalization
Ilya Shpitser, Judea Pearl
Many applications of causal analysis call for assessing, retrospectively, the effect of withholding an action that has in fact been implemented. This counterfactual quantity, somet…
Counterfactual Graphical Models for Longitudinal Mediation Analysis with Unobserved Confounding
Ilya Shpitser
Questions concerning mediated causal effects are of great interest in psychology, cognitive science, medicine, social science, public health, and many other disciplines. For instan…
