matchingMarkets: Analysis of Stable Matchings

Implements structural estimators to estimate preferences and correct for the sample selection bias of observed outcomes in matching markets. This includes one-sided matching of agents into groups (Klein, 2015) <doi:10.17863/CAM.5812> as well as two-sided matching of students to schools (Klein et al., 2024) <doi:10.1016/j.geb.2024.07.003>. The package also contains algorithms to find stable matchings in the three most common matching problems: the stable roommates problem (Irving, 1985) <doi:10.1016/0196-6774(85)90033-1>, the college admissions problem (Gale and Shapley, 1962) <doi:10.2307/2312726>, and the house allocation problem (Shapley and Scarf, 1974) <doi:10.1016/0304-4068(74)90033-0>.
