Transfer Learning of CATE with Kernel Ridge Regression

arXiv:2502. 11331v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The proliferation of data has sparked significant interest in leveraging findings from one study to estimate treatment effects in a different target population without direct outcome observations.

Causal Foundation Models

Causal Foundation Models (CFMs) are pretrained neural networks designed to estimate causal quantities—such as the average treatment effect—across new datasets using in‑context learning, eliminating the need for bespoke pipelines or model updates. The paper introduces CFMs, reviews foundational concepts in causal inference and machine learning, and provides practical code examples and Jupyter notebooks to illustrate their application.

Limits of Transfer Learning

The paper investigates the theoretical limits of transfer learning, demonstrating that careful selection of transferable information and its dependence on target problems is crucial. It establishes that the degree of probabilistic change in a transfer-learning algorithm imposes an upper bound on achievable improvement. These findings extend the algorithmic search framework to a broad class of learning tasks involving transfer.
