A Weighted Covariate Balancing Method of Estimating Causal Effects in Case-Control Studies

Propensity score methods have dominated the estimation of treatment effects based on observational data and particularly in the health and medical sciences. We propose a weighting method based on rank-based Mahalanobis distance, namely the covariate balancing rank-based Mahalanobis distance method, to estimate causal effects for observational data. Using Monte Carlo …
