Package: rcbalance Type: Package Title: Large, Sparse Optimal Matching with Refined Covariate Balance Version: 1.8.8 Date: 2022-3-25 Author: Samuel D. Pimentel Maintainer: Samuel D. Pimentel Description: Tools for large, sparse optimal matching of treated units and control units in observational studies. Provisions are made for refined covariate balance constraints, which include fine and near-fine balance as special cases. Matches are optimal in the sense that they are computed as solutions to network optimization problems rather than greedy algorithms. See Pimentel, et al.(2015) and Pimentel (2016), Obs. Studies 2(1):4-23.
