CausalGPS-package {CausalGPS}

R Documentation

The 'CausalGPS' package.

Description

An R package for implementing matching and weighting on generalized propensity scores with continuous exposures.

Details

We developed an innovative approach for estimating causal effects using observational data in settings with continuous exposures, and introduce a new framework for GPS caliper matching.
