In Stata, the command newey produces Newey–West standard errors for coefficients estimated by OLS regression. [13] In MATLAB, the command hac in the Econometrics toolbox produces the Newey–West estimator (among others). [14] In Python, the statsmodels [15] module includes functions for the covariance matrix using Newey–West.
The model can be estimated equation-by-equation using standard ordinary least squares (OLS). Such estimates are consistent, however generally not as efficient as the SUR method, which amounts to feasible generalized least squares with a specific form of the variance-covariance matrix. Two important cases when SUR is in fact equivalent to OLS ...
In R, White's Test can be implemented using the white function of the skedastic package. [5]In Python, White's Test can be implemented using the het_white function of the statsmodels.stats.diagnostic.het_white [6]
Heteroskedasticity-consistent standard errors that differ from classical standard errors may indicate model misspecification. Substituting heteroskedasticity-consistent standard errors does not resolve this misspecification, which may lead to bias in the coefficients. In most situations, the problem should be found and fixed. [5]
In statistics, ordinary least squares (OLS) is a type of linear least squares method for choosing the unknown parameters in a linear regression model (with fixed level-one [clarification needed] effects of a linear function of a set of explanatory variables) by the principle of least squares: minimizing the sum of the squares of the differences between the observed dependent variable (values ...
Python has the statsmodelsS package which includes many models and functions for time series analysis, including ARMA. Formerly part of the scikit-learn library, it is now stand-alone and integrates well with Pandas. PyFlux has a Python-based implementation of ARIMAX models, including Bayesian ARIMAX models.
The two regression lines are those estimated by ordinary least squares (OLS) and by robust MM-estimation. The analysis was performed in R using software made available by Venables and Ripley (2002). The two regression lines appear to be very similar (and this is not unusual in a data set of this size).
The Heckman correction is a two-step M-estimator where the covariance matrix generated by OLS estimation of the second stage is inconsistent. [7] Correct standard errors and other statistics can be generated from an asymptotic approximation or by resampling, such as through a bootstrap .
