Synthetic control methods offer a principled framework for estimating the causal effects of policy interventions when randomised experiments are infeasible. By constructing a weighted combination of ...
The majority of recent empirical papers in operations management (OM) employ observational data to investigate the causal effects of a treatment, such as program or policy adoption. However, as ...
New data-driven approaches change how researchers evaluate experimental therapies in clinical trials. Among these, synthetic control arms use existing datasets to provide a flexible framework for ...
Synthetic Control Arms (SCAs) are a powerful tool in clinical trials. This is particularly true in cases where traditional control arms are difficult to implement. This could be due to ethical ...
