Machine Learning-Augmented Placebo Test
The machine learning-augmented placebo test is a causal-inference validation technique that uses flexible ML estimators — such as causal forests, LASSO, or double/debiased ML — to conduct falsification checks on an identification strategy. By replacing real treatment assignments with placebo (fake) assignments and verifying that the estimated effect collapses to zero, researchers confirm that their causal findings are not artefacts of model misspecification or confounding.
