A Graph-Theoretic Approach to Randomization Tests of Causal Effects under General Interference

Abstract: Interference exists when a unit's outcome depends on another unit's treatment assignment. For example, intensive policing on one street could have a spillover effect on neighbouring streets. Classical randomization tests typically break down in this setting because many null hypotheses of interest are no longer sharp under interference. A promising alternative is to instead construct a conditional randomization test on a subset of units and assignments for which a given null hypothesis is sharp. Finding these … Show more

“…Second, the partial interference assumption has been widely used to restrict interference only in known and disjoint groups of units (Tchetgen Tchetgen and VanderWeele, 2012;Halloran and Hudgens, 2016). Third, the network-based interference assumption was introduced to deal with interference between connected units in an exposure graph or network (Bakshy et al, 2014;Puelz et al, 2019).…”

“…In more sophisticated problems, H(z, z * ) may depend on z and z * in a nontrivial way and we call such hypothesis partially sharp. The concept of imputability has appeared before, though the property was tied to a test statistic instead of a null hypothesis , Puelz et al, 2019; see Definition 4 below.…”

“…Their key insight is that imputability mapping of the above form can be represented as a bipartite graph with vertex set V = [N ] ∪ Z and edge set Puelz et al [2019] referred to this as the null exposure graph. Then by using (9), we have…”
