get_estimates: Generate a Hajek estimator

Description

A function that returns a Hajek estimator of causal contrasts

Usage

get_estimates(
  weighted_surf_1,
  weighted_surf_2,
  use_dist = TRUE,
  windows,
  dist_map,
  dist,
  entire_window
)

Value

list of Hajek estimators for each scenario (`est_haj`), causal contrasts (Hajek estimator) as a matrix (`est_tau_haj_matrix`), and causal contrast (scenario 2 - scenario 1) as a numeric vector (`est_tau_haj_cf2_vs_cf1`), along with weights, windows, and smoothed outcomes

Arguments

weighted_surf_1

a weighted surface for scenario 1

weighted_surf_2

another weighted surface for scenario 2

use_dist

whether to use distance-based maps. By default, TRUE

windows

a list of owin objects (if `use_dist = FALSE`)

dist_map

distance map (an im object, if `use_dist = TRUE`)

dist

distances (a numeric vector within the max distance of `dist_map`)

entire_window

an owin object of the entire map

Details

`get_estimates()` is an internal function to `get_est()` function, performing the estimation analysis after `get_weighted_surf()` function
