The estimand framework, formalized in ICH E9(R1) regulatory guidance, provides a structured approach to define scientific objectives with precision. We apply the estimand framework to dose–exposure–response analyses. ... strategy to improve exposure–response analyses for dose selection, particularly when the relevant evidence includes data from multiple studies.

The vast datasets on which LLMs are trained are repositories of human linguistic activity, imbued with the collective referential histories of countless speakers. Even if an #LLM does not "know" these histories in a human-like conscious sense, the statistical patterns it learns from this data implicitly encode these #causal-historical links.

Meaningful Language Understanding in LLMs

Do LLMs understand language, or do they only process symbols statistically?

Thoughts: A very cool app. Let's you see exactly what your assumptions and DGP mean for your causal model.

#statstab #476 Experimental : causal

Thoughts: Randomized experiments are the gold standard for inference for a reason. But they are hard to design.
