scoreCaliper

(Internal) Helper function to create an InfinitySparseMatrix from a set of
scores, a treatment indicator, and a caliper width.

Distance based bipartite matching using minimum cost flow, oriented
to matching of treatment and control groups in observational studies ('Hansen'
and 'Klopfer' 2006 <doi:10.1198/106186006X137047>). Routines are provided to
generate distances from generalised linear models (propensity score
matching), formulas giving variables on which to limit matched distances,
stratified or exact matching directives, or calipers, alone or in
combination.
