stratamatch: stratify and match large data sets
Description
This package employs a pilot matching design to automatically stratify and
match large datasets. The manual_stratify
function allows
users to manually stratify a dataset based on categorical variables of
interest, while the auto_stratify
function does automatically
by allocating a held-aside (pilot) data set, fitting a prognostic score (see
Hansen (2008) <doi:10.1093/biomet/asn004>) on the pilot set, and stratifying
the data set based on prognostic score quantiles. The
strata_match
function then does optimal matching of the data
set within strata.
