Abstract: Most estimation algorithms for adaptive treatment strategies assume that treatment rules at each decision point are independent from one another in the sense that they do not possess any common parameters. This is often unrealistic,… read more here.

Abstract: Dropout is a common complication in longitudinal studies, especially since the distinction between missing not at random (MNAR) and missing at random (MAR) dropout is intractable. Consequently, one starts with an analysis that is valid… read more here.
