Large, Sparse Optimal Matching with R package rcbalance
A new R package for matching in observational studies, rcbalance, is presented. rcbalance is designed to exploit sparsity among potential treated-control pairings and can conduct matches on a very large scale at low computational cost. Unlike existing packages, it also supports refined covariate balance constraints, which use prioritized lists of nominal covariates to induce high degrees of bal...
متن کاملSparseM: A Sparse Matrix Package for R
SparseM provides some basic R functionality for linear algebra with sparse matrices. Use of the package is illustrated by a family of linear model fitting functions that implement least squares methods for problems with sparse design matrices. Significant performance improvements in memory utilization and computational speed are possible for applications involving large sparse matrices.
متن کاملMultivariate and Propensity Score Matching Software with Automated Balance Optimization: The Matching package for R
Matching is an R package which provides functions for multivariate and propensity score matching and for finding optimal covariate balance based on a genetic search algorithm. A variety of univariate and multivariate metrics to determine if balance actually has been obtained are provided. The underlying matching algorithm is written in C++, makes extensive use of system BLAS and scales efficien...
متن کاملGifi Methods for Optimal Scaling in R: The Package homals
Homogeneity analysis combines the idea of maximizing the correlations between variables of a multivariate data set with that of optimal scaling. In this article we present methodological and practical issues of the R package homals which performs homogeneity analysis and various extensions. By setting rank constraints nonlinear principal component analysis can be performed. The variables can be...
متن کاملoptCluster: An R Package for Determining the Optimal Clustering Algorithm
There exist numerous programs and packages that perform validation for a given clustering solution; however, clustering algorithms fare differently as judged by different validation measures. If more than one performance measure is used to evaluate multiple clustering partitions, an optimal result is often difficult to determine by visual inspection alone. This paper introduces optCluster, an R...
