Summary
We recast the problem of creating asymptotically efficient estimators for the average treatment effect as constrained optimization.Posterior Sampling via Autoregressive Generation

Poster at ICLR 2024 Workshop: Generative Models for Decision Making and talk at 2024 Economics and AI+ML Meeting
Summary
We recast the problem of principled decision-making under uncertainty (Thompson Sampling) as autoregressive sequential modeling, trained via loss minimization.Diagnosing Model Performance Under Distribution Shift

Under revision at Operations Research; presented at FORC 2023, INFORMS 2023
Summary
When a model performs poorly out of distribution, how do we understand why performance became worse? We attribute change in model performance across distributions to X shifts and Y\|X shifts.Tutorial: Modeling and Exploiting Data Heterogeneity under Distribution Shifts
