Specify truncation parameters for transportIP and transportTADA.

Usage

trunc(type = c("quantile", "raw"), value)

Arguments

type

One of "quantile" or "raw". If "quantile", the truncation threshold is the quantile of the weights specified by value. If "raw", the truncation threshold is value.

value

Value of threshold as described above. When type = "quantile", this argument should be between 0 and 1.

Value

A trunc object that can be processed by transportIP and transportTADA for weight truncation.

Details

Here, truncation refers to the procedure of setting weights above a threshold equal to the threshold. Thus, observations with extreme weights are included in the analysis, albeit with reduced weights.
