gfks1_stat: Univariate GFKS statistics

Description

Compute the GFKS statistics and identify its location for each column of x. This function and its use are discussed in Yu (2020).

Usage

gfks1_stat(x,z)

Arguments

x

A matrix with length(z) rows giving the discretized covariates.

z

A vector whose ith coordinate is 1 for a treated unit and is 0 for a control.

Value

gfks

A vector of GFKS statistics for each discrete covariate.

where

A vector of locations that the GFKS statistics occur, i.e., the location of the maximum difference of the empirical distribution function of each discrete covariate in the treated and control groups.
