Researchers have developed a new method for off-policy evaluation (OPE) that accounts for strategic agents who modify their behavior based on the decision maker's policy. This approach addresses the challenge of policy-dependent covariate shift, which breaks standard OPE assumptions. The proposed technique uses local disclosure through post-hoc explanations to reveal pre-strategic covariates, enabling the construction of a doubly robust estimator for policy value. AI
