csranks

The R package csranks provides statistical tools for estimation and inference involving ranks (the position in a ranking). Two central functions are csranks for confidence sets for ranks and lmranks for regressions involving ranks, e.g. rank-rank regressions that are popular in applied work in economics.

The functions are based on recent work developing these procedures and their theoretical properties. The confidence sets for ranks are based on Mogstad, Romano, Shaikh, and Wilhelm (2023) and Bazylik, Mogstad, Romano, Shaikh, and Wilhelm (2022). The inference methods for regressions involving ranks are developed in Chetverikov and Wilhelm (2023).
