摘要翻译：
双机器学习提供了$\sqrt{n}$-一致的参数估计，即使高维或非参数干扰参数以$n^{-1/4}$速率估计。关键是采用Neyman-正交矩方程，该方程对干扰参数的扰动一阶不敏感。我们证明了通过使用$k$次级的正交性概念，可以将$n^{-1/4}$需求改进为$n^{-1/(2k+2)}$,从而对更复杂或更高维的干扰参数具有鲁棒性。在因果推理中流行的部分线性回归环境中，我们证明了当且仅当处理残差不是正态分布时，我们可以构造二阶正交矩。我们的证明依赖于斯坦引理，可能有独立的兴趣。我们通过证明显式双正交治疗效果估计程序的稳健性优势而得出结论。

英文摘要：
  Double machine learning provides $\sqrt{n}$-consistent estimates of parameters of interest even when high-dimensional or nonparametric nuisance parameters are estimated at an $n^{-1/4}$ rate. The key is to employ Neyman-orthogonal moment equations which are first-order insensitive to perturbations in the nuisance parameters. We show that the $n^{-1/4}$ requirement can be improved to $n^{-1/(2k+2)}$ by employing a $k$-th order notion of orthogonality that grants robustness to more complex or higher-dimensional nuisance parameters. In the partially linear regression setting popular in causal inference, we show that we can construct second-order orthogonal moments if and only if the treatment residual is not normally distributed. Our proof relies on Stein's lemma and may be of independent interest. We conclude by demonstrating the robustness benefits of an explicit doubly-orthogonal estimation procedure for treatment effect.
