linearmodels.system.model.SUR.multivariate_ls¶

Interface for specification of multivariate regression models

Parameters:¶

dependent: ndarray | DataArray | DataFrame | Series¶: nobs by ndep array of dependent variables
exog: ndarray | DataArray | DataFrame | Series¶: nobs by nvar array of exogenous regressors common to all models

Returns:¶

model – Model instance

Return type:¶

linearmodels.system.model.SUR

Notes

Utility function to simplify the construction of multivariate regression models which all use the same regressors. Constructs the dictionary of equations from the variables using the common exogenous variable.

Examples

A simple CAP-M can be estimated as a multivariate regression

>>> from linearmodels.datasets import french
>>> from linearmodels.system import SUR
>>> data = french.load()
>>> portfolios = data[["S1V1","S1V5","S5V1","S5V5"]]
>>> factors = data[["MktRF"]].copy()
>>> factors["alpha"] = 1
>>> mod = SUR.multivariate_ls(portfolios, factors)
