The function\nmakematch() uses two-criteria matching from Zhang et al. (2023)\n to create the matched data\n'bingeM' from 'binge'. The makematch() function also\nimplements optimal matching (Rosenbaum (1989)\n) and matching with fine or near-fine\nbalance (Rosenbaum et al. (2007)\n and Yang et al (2012)\n). The book makes use of\ntwo other R packages, 'weightedRank' and 'tightenBlock'.", "License": "GPL-2", "Encoding": "UTF-8", "LazyData": "true", "NeedsCompilation": "no", "Packaged": { "Date": "2026-05-15 07:18:21 UTC", "User": "root" }, "Repository": "https://rosenbap.r-universe.dev", "Date/Publication": "2024-09-06 02:55:04 UTC", "RemoteUrl": "https://github.com/cran/iTOS", "RemoteRef": "HEAD", "RemoteSha": "6fa95a032fae468776d3318e6221c6bf158ade7a", "MD5sum": "7de3e1fc5310852f4ae5cba17aa28c27", "_user": "rosenbap", "_type": "src", "_file": "iTOS_1.0.3.tar.gz", "_fileid": "0d19de3999c01467bfde1474f3be8d6c6a719ada3b40a2506c7d87c9cb7afc79", "_filesize": 420356, "_sha256": "0d19de3999c01467bfde1474f3be8d6c6a719ada3b40a2506c7d87c9cb7afc79", "_created": "2026-05-15T07:18:21.000Z", "_published": "2026-06-02T19:47:15.074Z", "_distro": "noble", "_jobs": [ { "job": 79158061656, "time": 108, "config": "linux-devel-x86_64", "r": "4.7.0", "check": "OK", "artifact": "7012116304" }, { "job": 79158062149, "time": 104, "config": "linux-release-x86_64", "r": "4.6.0", "check": "OK", "artifact": "7012115395" }, { "job": 79158062229, "time": 82, "config": "macos-oldrel-arm64", "r": "4.5.3", "check": "OK", "artifact": "7012109840" }, { "job": 79158061407, "time": 71, "config": "macos-release-arm64", "r": "4.6.0", "check": "OK", "artifact": "7012107053" }, { "job": 79158060802, "time": 182, "config": "source", "r": "4.6.0", "check": "OK", "artifact": "7012088466" }, { "job": 79158061050, "time": 93, "config": "wasm-release", "r": "4.6.0", "check": "OK", "artifact": "7368153930" }, { "job": 79158061871, "time": 79, "config": "windows-devel", "r": "4.7.0", "check": "OK", "artifact": "7012109012" }, { "job": 79158061883, "time": 67, "config": "windows-oldrel", "r": "4.5.3", "check": "OK", "artifact": "7012106167" }, { "job": 79158062063, "time": 70, "config": "windows-release", "r": "4.6.0", "check": "OK", "artifact": "7012107238" } ], "_buildurl": "https://github.com/r-universe/rosenbap/actions/runs/25905549148", "_status": "success", "_host": "GitHub-Actions", "_upstream": "https://github.com/cran/iTOS", "_commit": { "id": "6fa95a032fae468776d3318e6221c6bf158ade7a", "author": "Paul R.
