This can be useful to create balanced samples in observational studies with a binary treatment where the control group data can be reweighted to match the covariate moments in the treatment group. Entropy balancing can also be used to reweight a survey sample to known characteristics from a target population.}, number={7}, journal={Journal of Statistical Software}, author={Hainmueller, Jens and Xu, Yiqing}, year={2013}, pages={1–18} }
