Issue: chapter 11

Open JacksonRudd opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

There is an issue on chapter 11, in the following paragraph """ Now that we got the intuition, let’s look at the mathematical proof. We want to show that (Y1 , Y2) independent of T | P(x) is equivalent to saying that E(T|P(x),X ) = E(T| P(x)).

"""

You actually never show that these statements are equivalent. Why are they equivalent?

I seems you show that E(T|P(x),X ) = E(T| P(x)). is true, but not why it is equivalent to (Y1 , Y2) independent of T | P(x)

Hello, the latest revision of chapter 11 still does not elaborate on the reasons for the equivalence, has this problem been solved?
