Causal Inference for Latent Outcomes Learned with Factor Models

jennalandy/causallfo 25 Jun 2025

In many fields$\unicode{x2013}$including genomics, epidemiology, natural language processing, social and behavioral sciences, and economics$\unicode{x2013}$it is increasingly important to address causal questions in the context of factor models or representation learning.

Adaptive Supergeo Design: A Scalable Framework for Geographic Marketing Experiments

shawcharles/asd 25 Jun 2025

Geographic experiments are a gold-standard for measuring incremental return on ad spend (iROAS) at scale, yet their design is challenging: the unit count is small, heterogeneity is large, and the optimal Supergeo partitioning problem is NP-hard.

Dynamic guessing for Hamiltonian Monte Carlo with embedded numerical root-finding

dtu-qmcm/grapevine 18 Jun 2025

Modern implementations of Hamiltonian Monte Carlo and related MCMC algorithms support sampling of probability functions that embed numerical root-finding algorithms, thereby allowing fitting of statistical models involving analytically intractable algebraic constraints.

Penalised spline estimation of covariate-specific time-dependent ROC curves

mxrodriguezuvigo/condtimeroc-paper 16 Jun 2025

Recognising the need to account for patient heterogeneity when evaluating the accuracy of a prognostic biomarker, we introduce a novel penalised-based estimator of the time-dependent ROC curve that accommodates a possible modifying effect of covariates.

On Devon Allen's Disqualification at the 2022 World Track and Field Championships

ofiore/thesis 13 Jun 2025

Devon Allen's disqualification at the men's 110-meter hurdle final at the 2022 World Track and Field Championships, due to a reaction time (RT) of 0. 099 seconds-just 0. 001 seconds below the allowable threshold-sparked widespread debate over the fairness and validity of RT rules.

Educational Intervention Re-Wires Social Interactions in Isolated Village Networks

human-nature-lab/network_changes 12 Jun 2025

In aggregate, the imposition of a novel health information regime in rural villages (as a kind of social institution) led to a significant rewiring in individuals particular connections, but it still had a limited effect on the overall global structure of the village-wide social networks.
