title: 'triplesmatch: Match Triples Consisting of Two Controls and a Treated Unit
  or Vice Versa'
version: 1.1.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.triplesmatch
abstract: Attain excellent covariate balance by matching two treated units and one
  control unit or vice versa within strata. Using such triples, as opposed to also
  allowing pairs of treated and control units, allows easier interpretation of the
  two possible weights of observations and better insensitivity to unmeasured bias
  in the test statistic. Using triples instead of matching in a fixed 1:2 or 2:1 ratio
  allows for the match to be feasible in more situations. The 'rrelaxiv' package,
  which provides an alternative solver for the underlying network flow problems, carries
  an academic license and is not available on CRAN, but may be downloaded from 'GitHub'
  at <https://github.com/josherrickson/rrelaxiv/>. The 'Gurobi' commercial optimization
  software is required to use the two functions [infsentrip()] and [triplesIP()].
  These functions are not essential to the main purpose of this package. A free academic
  license can be obtained at <https://www.gurobi.com/features/academic-named-user-license/>.
  The 'gurobi' R package can then be installed following the instructions at <https://www.gurobi.com/documentation/9.1/refman/ins_the_r_package.html>.
