Optimal Decision Rules for Weak GMM
This paper studies optimal decision rules, including estimators and tests, for weakly identified GMM models. We derive the limit experiment for weakly identified GMM, and propose a theoretically-motivated class of priors which give rise to quasi-Bayes decision rules as a limiting case. Together with results in the previous literature, this establishes desirable properties for the quasi-Bayes approach regardless of model identification status, and we recommend quasi-Bayes for settings where identification is a concern. We further propose weighted average power-optimal identification-robust frequentist tests and confidence sets, and prove a Bernstein-von Mises-type result for the quasi-Bayes posterior under weak identification.

Machine learning systems embed preferences either in training losses or through post-processing of calibrated predictions. Applying information design methods from Strack and Yang (2024), this paper provides decision pro…
Computing Optimal Decision Sets with SAT
As machine learning is increasingly used to help make decisions, there is a demand for these decisions to be explainable. Arguably, the most explainable machine learning models use decision rules. This paper focuses on d…
