However\, the IPW estimator is prone to bias when the exposure variable is misclassified\, even if the misclassification is non-differential. In this paper\, we propose a correction for the IPW estimator using the method of moments (MoM) to account for misclassified exposure. We derive the corrected IPW estimator\, demonstrate its unbiasedness under misclassification\, and evaluate its performance through simulation studies. Furthermore\, we discuss techniques for estimating misclassification probabilities\, including scenarios with and without validation data or exposure replication. We also derive ranges of these probabilities for conducting sensitivity analyses when no gold standard is available. Additionally\, we apply the proposed method to real-world data from the Bangladesh Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) 2019 to estimate the causal effect of the wealth index on ICT skills among women aged 15-49\, demonstrating the robustness of our method.

However\, treating these AI/ML-generated predictions as true observations can lead to biased estimates and anti-conservative inference. While high predictive accuracy is often assumed to ensure valid downstream inference\, statistical challenges in inference with predicted data (IPD) fundamentally reduce to two sources of error: bias\, when predictions systematically distort relationships among variables\, and variance\, when uncertainty from prediction models is inadequately propagated. Wang et al. (2020) introduced post-prediction inference (PostPI)\, a pioneering method that addresses this challenge by modeling the relationship between predicted and observed outcomes in a small gold-standard dataset to calibrate inference in larger unlabeled samples. PostPI has been influential in formalizing the IPD problem and demonstrating how naive approaches fail to appropriately reflect uncertainty. However\, PostPI relies on a critical assumption: that prediction errors are uncorrelated with covariates of interest. In realistic settings where prediction algorithms exhibit systematic errors related to input features\, this assumption is often violated\, leading to biased parameter estimates and inadequate error control. We revisit PostPI in light of recent methodological advances and propose a moment-based generalization that relaxes this restrictive assumption. Our extension explicitly accounts for the covariance between prediction errors and covariates by incorporating an additional correction term estimated from the labeled dataset. This approach yields unbiased point estimates under standard conditions while incorporating a simple scaling factor that appropriately reflects the contribution of relationship model uncertainty regardless of sample size allocation. Through extensive simulations across three data-generating scenarios\, we demonstrate that our method maintains nominal Type-I error rates and achieves proper coverage probability\, even when the labeled sample is substantially smaller than the unlabeled sample settings where both naive approaches and original PostPI fail. Our work illustrates the classic bias-variance trade-off inherent to IPD’s challenges and confirms that there is no free lunch when substituting predicted outcomes for true measurements.
