- class ClusteredCovariance(x, eps, sigma, full_sigma, *, gls=False, debiased=False, constraints=None, clusters=None, group_debias=False)[source]¶
Heteroskedastic covariance estimation for system regression
- Parameters
- x
List
[ndarray
] ndependent element list of regressor
- eps
ndarray
Model residuals, ndependent by nobs
- sigma
ndarray
Covariance matrix estimator of eps
- glsbool
Flag indicating to compute the GLS covariance estimator. If False, assume OLS was used
- debiasedbool
Flag indicating to apply a small sample adjustment
- constraints{
None
,LinearConstraint
} Constraints used in estimation, if any
- clusters
ndarray
Optional array of cluster id. Must be integer valued, and have shape (nobs, ncluster) where ncluster is 1 or 2.
- group_debiasbool
Flag indicating whether to debias by the number of groups.
- x

Notes
If GLS is used, the covariance is estimated by
\[(X'\Omega^{-1}X)^{-1}\tilde{S}_{\mathcal{G}}(X'\Omega^{-1}X)^{-1}\]where X is a block diagonal matrix of exogenous variables and where \(\tilde{S}_{\mathcal{G}}\) is a clustered estimator of the model scores based on the model residuals and the weighted X matrix \(\Omega^{-1/2}X\).
When GLS is not used, the covariance is estimated by
\[(X'X)^{-1}\hat{S}_{\mathcal{G}}(X'X)^{-1}\]where \(\hat{S}\) is a clustered estimator of the covariance of the model scores.
