bootCounterfactuals: bootCounterfactuals

In DiSCos: Distributional Synthetic Controls Estimation

bootCounterfactuals

Description

Function for computing the bootstrapped counterfactuals in the DiSCo method

Usage

bootCounterfactuals(result_t, t, mixture, weights, evgrid, grid)

Arguments

result_t	A list containing the results of the DiSCo_CI_iter function
t	The current time period
mixture	Logical, indicating whether to use the mixture of distributions approach instead. See Section 4.3. in \insertCitegunsilius2023distributional;textualDiSCos. This approach minimizes the distance between the CDFs instead of the quantile functions, and is preferred for categorical variables. When working with such variables, one should also provide a list of support points in the grid.cat parameter. When that is provided, this parameter is automatically set to TRUE. Default is FALSE.
grid	Grid to recompute the CDF on if mixture option is chosen

Value

A list containing the bootstrapped counterfactuals
