In Yunshu7/dsmatch: Use double score matching algorithm to estimate ATE and QTE

dsmatch

The R package dsmatch provides matching algorithm based on both propensity score and prognostic score to estimate average treatment effect and quantile treatment effect. Classical matching algortihms such as propensity score matching and prognositc score matching are also contained for comparison.

Installation with devtools

devtools::install_github("Yunshu7/dsmatch")

Main paper

Double score matching estimators of average and quantile treatment effects available on arxiv https://arxiv.org/abs/2001.06049

Main functions

There are four functions in the package: - dsmatchATE: Double Score Matching Estimator for Average Treatment Effect - dsmatchQTE: Double Score Matching Estimator for Quantile Treatment Effect - dsmatchATT: Double Score Matching Estimator for Average Treatment Effect for the Treated - dsmatchQTT: Double Score Matching Estimator for Quantile Treatment Effect for the Treated

Detailed information and examples are included in the documents of each function. For example:

?dsmatchATE
