Had a great time presenting at #ACIC on doubly robust inference via calibration

Calibrating nuisance estimates in DML protects against model misspecification and slow convergence.

Just one line of code is all it takes.

I’ll be giving an oral presentation at ACIC in the Advancing Causal Inference session with ML on Wednesday!

My talk will be on Automatic Double Reinforcement Learning and long term causal inference!

I’ll discuss Markov decision processes, Q-functions, and a new form of calibration for RL!

Excited to present "Self-Calibrating Conformal Prediction" at #NeurIPS2024 this afternoon! Join me at the poster session to learn how combining model calibration with predictive inference gives calibrated point predictions and conditionally valid prediction intervals
