Minimum likelihood allocation (MLA) is a new method for sequentially assigning subjects to treatment groups in a clinical trial. Its aim is to balance the trial, that is, to prevent various treatment groups from containing subjects who have much better or much worse prognoses than the average. The o

## Abstract In this paper we introduce the Random Recursive Partitioning (RRP) matching method. RRP generates a proximity matrix which might be useful in econometric applications like average treatment effect estimation. RRP is a Monte Carlo method that randomly generates non‐empty recursive partit

Recurrent events are frequently encountered in clinical trials when individuals may experience an event more than once. Examples are common in medical research, including infectious episodes, myocardial infarctions and hospital admissions. However, when only the "rst event is considered, there is a

In observational studies, investigators have no control over the treatment assignment. The treated and non-treated (that is, control) groups may have large differences on their observed covariates, and these differences can lead to biased estimates of treatment effects. Even traditional covariance a

## Abstract The European Randomized study of Screening for Prostate Cancer (ERSPC) has recently reported a 20% reduction in death from prostate cancer in a population‐based prostate cancer screening (core age group: 55–69 years of age). The effect of screening may be diluted by noncompliance in the
