Targeted Learning of the Mean Outcome under an Optimal Dynamic Treatment Rule.
We consider estimation of and inference for the mean outcome under the optimal dynamic two time-point treatment rule defined as the rule that maximizes the mean outcome under the dynamic treatment, where the candidate rules are restricted to depend only on a user-supplied subset of the baseline and intermediate covariates. This estimation problem is addressed in a statistical model for the data...

We consider the estimation of an optimal dynamic two time-point treatment rule defined as the rule that maximizes the mean outcome under the dynamic treatment, where the candidate rules are restricted to depend only on a user-supplied subset of the baseline and intermediate covariates. This estimation problem is addressed in a statistical model for the data distribution that is nonparametric, b...
متن کاملAn Optimal Trading Rule Under a Switchable Mean-Reversion Model
This work provides an optimal trading rule that allows buying and selling of an asset sequentially over time. The asset price follows a switchable mean-reversion model with a Markovian jump. Such model can be applied to assets with a “staircase” price behavior and yet simple enough to allow an analytic solution. The objective is to determine a sequence of trading times to maximize an overall re...
متن کاملStatistical Inference for the Mean Outcome Under a Possibly Non-Unique Optimal Treatment Strategy
We consider challenges that arise in the estimation of the value of an optimal individualized treatment strategy defined as the treatment rule that maximizes the population mean outcome, where the candidate treatment rules are restricted to depend on baseline covariates. We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the pathwise differentiability of the optimal value, a key condition needed...
متن کاملAn Empirical Quest for Optimal Rule Learning Heuristics An Empirical Quest for Optimal Rule Learning Heuristics
The primary goal of the research reported in this paper is to identify what criteria are responsible for the good performance of a heuristic rule evaluation function in a greedy topdown covering algorithm. We first argue that search heuristics for inductive rule learning algorithms typically trade off consistency and coverage, and we investigate this trade-off by determining optimal parameter s...
