Effect of helmet use on severity of head injuries using doubly robust estimators

© Springer International Publishing AG 2017. Causal inference based on observational data can be formulated as a missing outcome imputation and an adjustment for covariate imbalance models. Doubly robust estimators–a combination of imputation-based and inverse probability weighting estimators–offer...
