A kernel test for causal association via noise contrastive backdoor adjustment
Causal inference grows increasingly complex as the dimension of confounders increases. Given treatments X𝑋, outcomes Y𝑌, and measured confounders Z𝑍, we develop a non-parametric method to test the do-null hypothesis that, after an intervention on X𝑋, there is no marginal dependence of Y𝑌 on X𝑋, agai...
