New Regression Method Uses AI-Generated Controls to Address Latent Endogeneity

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a method for linear regression that addresses endogeneity when a sufficient control variable is latent. The approach involves generating numerous proxies for this latent control using AI/ML techniques. By incorporating a rich set of these generated controls, the method allows for consistent estimation of the parameter of interest without the need for validation data, offering practical recommendations for practitioners.

    Regression with Many Generated Controls

    arXiv:2611.06855v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We consider linear regression when some covariates are endogenous, a variable sufficient to control for endogeneity exists but is latent, and the practitioner can generate many proxies for the latent control. For instance, one cou…
