approxmatch: Approximately Optimal Fine Balance Matching with Multiple Groups

Tools for constructing a matched design with multiple comparison groups. Further specifications of refined covariate balance restriction and exact match on covariate can be imposed. Matches are approximately optimal in the sense that the cost of the solution is at most twice the optimal cost, Crama and Spieksma (1992) <doi:10.1016/0377-2217(92)90078-N>, Karmakar, Small and Rosenbaum (2019) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2019.1584900>.
