Impact of sufficient dimension reduction in nonparametric estimation of causal effect

We consider the estimation of causal treatment effect using nonparametric regression or inverse propensity weighting together with sufficient dimension reduction for searching low-dimensional covariate subsets. A special case of this problem is the estimation of a response effect with data having ig...
