Robust X-Learner: Breaking the Curse of Imbalance and Heavy Tails via Robust Cross-Imputation
Robust X-Learner: Breaking the Curse of Imbalance and Heavy Tails via Robust Cross-Imputation arXiv:2601.15360v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Estimating Heterogeneous Treatment Effects (HTE) in industrial applications such as AdTech and healthcare presents a dual challenge: extreme class imbalance and heavy-tailed outcome distributions. While the X-Learner framework effectively addresses imbalance through cross-imputation, we demonstrate that it…

Robust estimation of heterogeneous treatment effects in randomized trials leveraging external data
Robust estimation of heterogeneous treatment effects in randomized trials leveraging external data arXiv:2507.03681v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Randomized trials are typically designed to detect average treatment effects but often lack the statistical power to uncover effect heterogeneity over patient characteristics, limiting their value for personalized decision-making. To address this, we propose the QR-learner, a model-agnostic…
