Transportation Methods for Econometrics

TraME (Transportation Methods for Econometrics) is an R package for for solving problems of equilibrium computation and estimation in consumer demand and matching frameworks via the Mass Transportation Approach.

The package is under active development and should be considered as `alpha stage' software.

The quickest way to install TraME is via the devtools package.

install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
install_github("TraME-Project/TraME-R")

The TraME test routines are invoked as follows:

library(TraME)
library(gurobi)
tests_TraME()

Note that TraME requires compilation, and so an appropriate development environment is necessary to install the package.

• For Windows users, get Rtools.
• For Mac users, get Xcode and install gfortran 4.8.2, the latter of which can be obtained using

curl -O http://r.research.att.com/libs/gfortran-4.8.2-darwin13.tar.bz2
sudo tar fvxz gfortran-4.8.2-darwin13.tar.bz2 -C /
