linearmodels.system.gmm.KernelWeightMatrix.weight_matrix

KernelWeightMatrix.weight_matrix(x, z, eps, *, sigma=None)

Construct a GMM weight matrix for a model.

Parameters:

xlist[ndarray]

Model regressors (exog and endog)

zlist[ndarray]

Model instruments (exog and instruments)

epsndarray

Model errors (nobs by nequation)

sigmandarray

Fixed covariance of model errors. If None, estimated from eps.

Returns:

ndarray

Covariance of GMM moment conditions.

Return type:

Float64Array
