Causal inference via implied interventions
Carlos García Meixide, Mark J. van der Laan
In the context of having an instrumental variable, the standard practice in causal inference begins by targeting an effect of interest and proceeds by formulating assumptions enabl…
Semi-parametric efficient estimation of small genetic effects in large-scale population cohorts
Olivier Labayle, Breeshey Roskams-Hieter, Joshua Slaughter +5
Population genetics seeks to quantify DNA variant associations with traits or diseases, as well as interactions among variants and with environmental factors. Computing millions of…
Targeted Learning Estimation of Sampling Variance for Improved Inference
Yunwen Ji, Mark van der Laan, Alan Hubbard
For robust statistical inference it is crucial to obtain a good estimator of the variance of the proposed estimator of the statistical estimand. A commonly used estimator of the va…
An Estimator-Robust Design for Augmenting Randomized Controlled Trials with External Real-World Data
Sky Qiu, Jens Tarp, Andrew Mertens +1
Augmenting randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with external real-world data (RWD) has the potential to improve the finite sample efficiency of treatment effect estimators. We desc…
