Understanding the genetic underpinnings to complex diseases requires consideration of sophisticated analytical methods designed to uncover intricate associations across multiple predictor variables. At the same time, knowledge of whether single nucleotide polymorphisms within a gene are on the...

A new matching method is proposed for the estimation of the average treatment effect of social policy interventions (e.g., training programs or health care measures. Given an outcome variable, a treatment and a set of pre-treatment covariates, the method is based on the examination of random...
