get_weights: Calculate state weights for each household

In donboyd5/microweight: Tools for Weighting Microdata Files

Description

get_weights calculates state weights for each household

Usage

get_weights(beta, delta, xmat)

Arguments

beta	s x k matrix of parameters to poisson model
delta	vector of household-specific constants, length h
xmat	h x k matrix of data for households

Details

See (Khitatrakun, Mermin, Francis, 2016, p.4)

h

number of households (or individuals, records, tax returns, etc.)

s

number of states (or other geographies or subgroups)

k

number of characteristics each household has

Value

h x s matrix of state weights for each household

Examples

p <- make_problem(h=10, s=3, k=2)
beta <- matrix(0, nrow=p$s, ncol=p$k)
delta <- get_delta(p$wh, beta, p$xmat)
get_weights(beta, delta, p$xmat)
