During Michaelmas Term, OxTalks will be moving to a new platform (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
For now, continue using the current page and event submission process (freeze period dates to be advised).
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Debiased machine learning based on regression requires estimation of an unknown debiasing function. We give an automatic method of estimating the debiasing function based on any machine learner. This method only depends on the parameter of interest and the machine learner. We give primitive regularity conditions for neural net estimation of the debiasing function and show its superior performance relative to inverse probability weighting in estimating the average treatment effect in a state of the art example.
