Researchers have developed a new method for causal inference that addresses the challenge of unobserved confounding, particularly when the confounder is categorical. The approach leverages mixture learning to identify the underlying confounding structure by recovering the corresponding mixture distribution. An estimation procedure based on tensor decomposition is proposed, offering consistent recovery of latent structures and non-asymptotic guarantees, with demonstrated effectiveness in simulations and real-world experiments.
