机器学习+因果推断:双重机器学习原理与实践
I. Neyman正交性与因果识别的理论基础
1.1 因果模型的参数化表述
考虑部分线性模型(Partially Linear Model):
其中是结果变量,是我们关心的处理变量(如价格),是高维协变量(如用户特征、历史行为),是因果参数,是未知的干扰函数。
关键识别挑战:若直接对关于和做ML回归,得到的会因正则化偏差(Regularization Bias)和模型误设(Model Misspecification)而失效。ML模型为最小化预测误差,会牺牲参数的因果解释性。
Neyman正交性要求:得分函数对干扰参数的导数为零,使得的估计对的估计误差一阶不敏感。
1.2 正交化得分的构造
DML通过Frisch-Waugh-Lovell定理的扩展实现正交化:
I. 第一阶段:用ML估计两个干扰函数
- 结果模型:
- 处理模型:
II. 第二阶段:构造正交化残差
III. 第三阶段:正交得分估计
其中来自交叉验证样本,防止过拟合传导。
实例分析:电商价格策略的混淆问题
某电商平台对1000个SKU进行调价实验。为销量,为价格,包含200个特征(历史销量、用户评分、类目、季节等)。直接Lasso回归得到(价格弹性),但这混杂了:高端商品(高X)本身定价高且销量低的混淆效应。DML通过先剥离,再用残差回归,得到真实的因果效应,揭示了更强的价格敏感性。

适用于处理变量为连续的场景(价格、剂量等),目标为条件平均处理效应(CATE)。
关键假设:,与在给定后条件独立。
2.2 交互式模型(Interactive Model):异质效应
当处理效应依赖于协变量时:
通过DML估计的函数形式。
2.3 二值处理与平均处理效应(ATE)
对于二值,ATE识别为:
DML通过逆概率加权(IPW)和回归调整(RA)结合实现双重稳健(Doubly Robust)。
| 模型类型 | 处理变量 | 目标参数 | 适用场景 | 关键假设 | 稳健性 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 部分线性模型 | 连续 | 价格弹性、剂量反应 | 线性处理效应 | 单稳健 | |
| 交互式模型 | 连续/二值 | 异质处理效应 | 效应函数光滑 | 单稳健 | |
| 二值ATE | 二值 | 政策评估 | 可忽略性 | 双重稳健 | |
| LATE | 二值(工具变量) | 非依从场景 | 排他性+相关性 | 双重稳健 |

III. 实例分析:电商平台价格弹性评估
3.1 业务背景与数据准备
某电商平台希望评估价格提升10%对复购率的影响。实验设计为:
- 处理组:500个SKU提价10%
- 对照组:500个SKU价格不变
- 协变量:200维特征(历史销量、用户画像、类目、季节性等)
数据特征:
- 高维混淆:高端商品天然价格高、复购率低
- 非线性关系:价格弹性随用户购买力异质
- 稀疏性:仅有20个特征真正影响结果

3.3 业务洞察与决策建议
效果解读:
- DML估计的ATE为-0.041(p<0.01),意味着提价10%导致复购率下降4.1个百分点
- 异质性发现:价格敏感度高的用户组效应达-0.08,而低敏感度组仅-0.02,提示差异化定价机会
决策行动:
I. 策略优化:对高敏感度用户维持原价,低敏感度用户提价,预计整体收益提升12%
II. 产品迭代:开发价格弹性预测模型,实时动态定价
III. 实验设计:未来A/B测试需控制更多协变量,减少混淆
IV. 生产级部署:实时因果推断API
