BalancedSampling (version 1.6.3)

landingphase: Landing phase of the cube method

Description

Landing is done by dropping balancing variables (from rightmost column).

Usage

landingphase(prob,probflight,Xbal)

Value

Returns a vector of length N with inclusion indicators.

Arguments

prob

vector of length N with inclusion probabilities

probflight

vector of length N obtained from the flightphase

Xbal

matrix of balancing auxiliary variables of N rows and q columns
