Our approach is based on the fact that in almost all cases, some information regarding the latent variable is recoverable. For illustration, let us consider defendant $i$ who has been given a negative decision $\decisionValue_i = 0$. If the defendant's private features $\featuresValue_i$ would indicate that this subject would be safe to release, we could easily deduce that the unobservable variable $\unobservableValue_i$ indicated high risk since
%contained so significant information that
the defendant had to be jailed. In turn, this makes $Y=0$ more likely than what would have been predicted based on $\featuresValue_i$ alone.
In an opposite situation, where the features $\featuresValue_i$ clearly imply that the defendant is dangerous and is subsequently jailed, we do not have that much information available on the latent variable.
\acomment{Could emphasize the above with a plot, x and z in the axis and point styles indicating the decision.}
\acomment{The above assumes that the decision maker in the data is good and not bad.}
