Covariate-adjusted Fisher randomization tests for the average treatment effect

A Zhao, P Ding - Journal of Econometrics, 2021 - Elsevier
Fisher's randomization test (frt) delivers exact p-values under the strong null hypothesis of
no treatment effect on any units whatsoever and allows for flexible covariate adjustment to …

Toward better practice of covariate adjustment in analyzing randomized clinical trials

T Ye, J Shao, Y Yi, Q Zhao - Journal of the American Statistical …, 2023 - Taylor & Francis
In randomized clinical trials, adjustments for baseline covariates at both design and analysis
stages are highly encouraged by regulatory agencies. A recent trend is to use a model …

Lasso-adjusted treatment effect estimation under covariate-adaptive randomization

H Liu, F Tu, W Ma - Biometrika, 2023 - academic.oup.com
We consider the problem of estimating and inferring treatment effects in randomized
experiments. In practice, stratified randomization, or more generally, covariate-adaptive …

Machine learning for variance reduction in online experiments

Y Guo, D Coey, M Konutgan, W Li… - Advances in …, 2021 - proceedings.neurips.cc
We consider the problem of variance reduction in randomized controlled trials, through the
use of covariates correlated with the outcome but independent of the treatment. We propose …

No-harm calibration for generalized Oaxaca–Blinder estimators

PL Cohen, CB Fogarty - Biometrika, 2024 - academic.oup.com
In randomized experiments, adjusting for observed features when estimating treatment

On regression-adjusted imputation estimators of the average treatment effect

Z Lin, F Han - arXiv preprint arXiv:2212.05424, 2022 - arxiv.org
Imputing missing potential outcomes using an estimated regression function is a natural
