Description

Functions to estimate the probability to receive the observed treatment, based on individual characteristics. The inverse of these probabilities can be used as weights whenestimating causal effects from observational data via marginal structural models. Both pointtreatment situations and longitudinal studies can be analysed. The same functions can be used tocorrect for informative censoring.
