title: 'netmatchRI: Network-Constrained Matching and Randomization-Based Inference'
version: 0.1.0
abstract: Provides network-constrained matching and randomization-based inference
for observational network data with dependence and interference. Dual-penalty matching
minimizes total covariate dissimilarity while enforcing penalties on network proximity
between and within treatment arms in matched sets. Randomization-based inference
combines evidence from correlated matched sets based on this design. The package
also provides covariate-balance and network-distance diagnostics, sensitivity analysis,
and simulated example data. The open-source 'HiGHS' solver is used by default to
solve the matching problem. An optional interface to the commercial 'Gurobi Optimizer'
is available. Eligible academic users can request a free license at .
The optimizer can be downloaded from .
The associated 'gurobi' R package is not available from CRAN; it is distributed
with the optimizer and can be installed by following the official instructions at
.
