OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
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.
