Abstract: In this review, we cover the basics of efficient nonparametric parameter estimation (also called functional estimation), with a focus on parameters that arise in causal inference problems. We review both efficiency bounds (i.e., what is the best possible performance for estimating a given parameter?) and the analysis of particular estimators (i.e., what is this estimator's error, and does it attain the efficiency bound?) under weak assumptions.
