causalOT (version 1.0.2)

dataHolder: dataHolder

Description

dataHolder

Usage

dataHolder(x, z, y = NA_real_, weights = NA_real_)

Value

Returns an object of class dataHolder with slots

• x matrix. A matrix of confounders.

• z integer. The treatment indicator, \(z_i \in \{0,1\}\).

• y numeric. The outcome data.

• n0 integer. The number of observations where z==0

• n1 integer. The number of observations where z==1

• weights numeric. The empirical distribution of the full sample.

Arguments

x

the covariate data. Can be a matrix, an object of class dataHolder or a DataSim object. The latter two object types won't need arguments z or y.

z

the treatment indicator

y

the outcome data

weights

the empirical distribution of the sample

Details

Creates an object used internally by the causalOT package for data management.

Examples

x <- matrix(0, 100, 10)
z <- stats::rbinom(100, 1, 0.5)

# don't need to provide outcome
# function will assume each observation gets equal mass
dataHolder(x = x, z = z)
