A Matching Method with Panel Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
Difference-in-differences with matching is a popular method to measure the impact of an intervention in health as well as social sciences. This method requires baseline data, i.e., data before interventions, which are not always available in reality. Instead, panel data with two time periods are often collected after interventions begin. In this paper, a simple matching method is proposed to measure impact of an intervention using two-period panel data after the intervention.

Sensitivity analysis and parameters calculation of PV solar panel based on empirical data and two-diode circuit model
In this paper, a simple algorithm based on a two-diode circuit model of the solar cell is proposed for calculating different parameters of PV panels. The input parameters required for this algorithm are available from datasheets of the standard PV modules. The values of series and parallel resistances, as well as the recombination factor of Diode 2, are estimated through an iterative solution p...
متن کاملA Semi-Analytical Method for History Matching and Improving Geological Models of Layered Reservoirs: CGM Analytical Method
History matching is used to constrain flow simulations and reduce uncertainty in forecasts. In this work, we revisited some fundamental engineering tools for predicting waterflooding behavior to better understand the flaws in our simulation and thus find some models which are more accurate with better matching. The Craig-Geffen-Morse (CGM) analytical method was used to predict recovery performa...
متن کاملMapping Cracking Pattern of Masonry Wall Panel Based on Two-step Criterion for Matching Zone Similarity
Article history: Received: 11.03.2013. Received in revised form: 02.04.2013. Accepted: 02.04.2013. This paper puts forward an innovative criterion in the cellar automata (CA) technique for both matching zone similarity and mapping failure pattern of masonry wall panel. The criterion proposed in this paper is a two-step matching method. Firstly, calculate the state values of the cells in the bas...
متن کاملThe Effect of the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program on Childhood Obesity
This paper investigates how the Fresh Fruits and Vegetable Program (FFVP), a national program which provides funding for the distribution of free fresh fruits and vegetables to students in participating schools, affects childhood obesity. Using a panel data set, we combine matching methodology and difference-in-differences analysis to estimate the effect of the FFVP on childhood obesity outcome...
متن کاملAdaptive Approximate Record Matching
Typographical data entry errors and incomplete documents, produce imperfect records in real world databases. These errors generate distinct records which belong to the same entity. The aim of Approximate Record Matching is to find multiple records which belong to an entity. In this paper, an algorithm for Approximate Record Matching is proposed that can be adapted automatically with input error...
