Sometimes, I got the NULL from wgt.implied. what is the cause of this?
I just checked the code and found that there are two possible reasons: the first one is that there is no factors are selected so there are no implied weights. The second one is that the generalized inverse matrix that represents the implied weights is not solvable so that the function returns a NULL.
Thanks, Licheng. What I actually want to do is to show the (weighted) average characteristics/outcomes of the synthetic unit side-by-side with the characteristics/outcomes of the treated unit. Is there a way to do that without the implied weights? It seems my estimations on my data sample does not yield a solvable matrix. Thanks for your help and work on this package.
