  <dc:title>Biased Matching for Two-Urn Sampling Problems</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package BiasedMatch version 0.1.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Tools for the two-urn biased sampling problems of Puza and
    Bonfrer (2018) &lt;doi:10.1080/03610926.2017.1300282&gt;. Two overlapping sets
    of items are sampled without replacement, with items common to both sets
    given a selection weight favouring their inclusion. The package computes
    the probability mass function, mean and variance of the number of matching
    items using the univariate and bivariate Wallenius' non-central
    hypergeometric distributions, performs maximum likelihood and Bayesian
    inference for the bias parameter, and provides Metropolis-Hastings
    algorithms for hierarchical extensions.</dc:description>
