Command for genetic matching in Stata

[Jane Evans]

Hi there,

Is there a command for genetic matching in Stata? I had thought there was a command called genmatch but cannot find where to download this.

Thanks!

I believe you are thinking of the R program GenMatch by Jasjeet Sekhon, which performs matching using a genetic search algorithm. For more information, see http://sekhon.berkeley.edu/matching/ .

Erin Hartman has a link advertising a Stata version, but the web page doesn't work for me: http://www.erinhartman.com/?page_id=32 . If you find it, please let us know.

Any news of a package with the Genetic Matching method in Stata?
