gswdesign-package: gswdesign: The Gram-Schmidt walk design

Description Details References

Description

Provides wrappers for the Julia package 'GSWDesign', which is a fast implementation of the Gram-Schmidt Walk for balancing covariates in randomized experiments. The Gram-Schmidt Walk design allows experimenters to control the trade-off between the amount of covariate balance and robustness provided by treatment assignment.

Details

See sample_gs_walk for the main function.

See the packages' websites for more information: https://github.com/crharshaw/GSWDesign.jl, https://github.com/fsavje/gswdesign-R.

Bug reports and suggestions are greatly appreciated. They are best reported here: https://github.com/fsavje/gswdesign-R/issues.
