Inference Methods for Partially Linear Estimators.

Description

Inference methods for partially linear estimators. Simple wrapper for sandwich::vcovHC().

Usage

## S3 method for class 'ddml_fpliv'
summary(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'ddml_pliv'
summary(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'ddml_plm'
summary(object, ...)

Arguments

object

An object of class ddml_plm, ddml_pliv, or ddml_fpliv as fitted by ddml_plm(), ddml_pliv(), and ddml_fpliv(), respectively.

...

Additional arguments passed to vcovHC. See sandwich::vcovHC() for a complete list of arguments.

Value

An array with inference results for each ensemble_type.

# Estimate the partially linear model using a single base learner, ridge.
