Under the typical unconfoundness assumption, augmented inverse probability weighting (AIPW) has been popular for estimating the average causal effect (ACE) due to its double robustness in the sense it relies on either the propensity score model or the outcome mean model to be correctly specified. To ensure the key assumption holds, the effort is often made to collect a sufficiently rich set of pretreatment variables, rendering variable selection imperative. It is well known that variable selection for the propensity score targeted for accurate prediction may produce a variable ACE estimator by including the instrument variables. Thus, many recent works recommend selecting all outcome predictors for both confounding control and efficient estimation. This article shows that the AIPW estimator with variable selection targeted for efficient estimation may lose the desirable double robustness property. Instead, we propose controlling the propensity score model for any covariate that is a predictor of either the treatment or the outcome or both, which preserves the double robustness of the AIPW estimator. Using this principle, we propose a two-stage procedure with penalization for variable selection and the AIPW estimator for estimation. We show the proposed procedure benefits from the desirable double robustness property. We evaluate the finite-sample performance of the AIPW estimator with various variable selection criteria through simulation and an application.</p>","PeriodicalId":51230,"journal":{"name":"Statistics and Its Interface","volume":"18 1","pages":"93-105"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12395465/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144977781","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Also, when censored observations are present, distinguishing censored individuals from the cured group lead to identifiability issues in the members of this class.

Usually, such a scenario implies a positive skewness on the response distributions, along with the existence of within-subject dependency. It is known that neglecting these features can lead to a misleading inference. In this paper we extend the beta prime regression model for modeling asymmetric positive data, while taking into account the dependence structure. We consider a useful predictor for modeling a suitable transformation of the mean, along with homogeneous covariance structure. The proposed model is an interesting competitor of the flexible Tweedie regression models, which include distributions such as Gamma and Inverse Gaussian. Furthermore, residual analysis and influence diagnostic tools are proposed. A Monte Carlo experiment is conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed methodology, under small and moderate sample sizes, along with suitable discussions. The methodology is illustrated with the analysis of a real longitudinal dataset. An R package was developed to allow the practitioners to use the methodology described in this paper.","PeriodicalId":51230,"journal":{"name":"Statistics and Its Interface","volume":"67 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141743416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The most existing works in graphical modeling focus on the cases that the data are Gaussian or mixed and the variables are linearly dependent. In this paper, we propose a double regression method for learning graphical models under the high-dimensional nonlinear and non-Gaussian setting, and prove that the proposed method is consistent under mild conditions. The proposed method works by performing a series of nonparametric conditional independence tests. The conditioning set of each test is reduced via a double regression procedure where a model-free sure independence screening procedure or a sparse deep neural network can be employed. The numerical results indicate that the proposed method works well for high-dimensional nonlinear and non-Gaussian data.","PeriodicalId":51230,"journal":{"name":"Statistics and Its Interface","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141743413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

More often than not, objective Bayesian analyses utilize noninformative priors such as Jeffreys priors. However, since these noninformative priors are often improper, the Bayes factor associated with these improper priors is not well-defined. To circumvent this indeterminate issue, the Bayes factor can be corrected by intrinsic and fractional methods. These adjusted Bayes factors are asymptotically equivalent to the ordinary Bayes factors calculated with proper priors, called intrinsic priors. In this article, we derive intrinsic priors for testing the point null hypothesis under a zero-inflated Poisson distribution. Extensive simulation studies are performed to support the theoretical results on asymptotic equivalence, and two real datasets are analyzed to illustrate the methodology developed in this paper.","PeriodicalId":51230,"journal":{"name":"Statistics and Its Interface","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141743410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
