Bread and meat for the sandwich
Description
Bread and meat for the sandwich estimator of the variance-covariance.
Usage
bread.drc(x, ...)
estfun.drc(x, ...)
Arguments
x |
object of class |
... |
additional arguments. At the moment none are supported |
Details
The details are provided by Zeileis (2006).
Value
The unscaled hessian is returned by bread.drc
, whereas estfun.drc
returns the estimating function evaluated at the data and the parameter estimates.
By default no clustering is assumed, corresponding to robust standard errors under independence.
If a cluster variable is provided the log likelihood contributions provided by estfun
are summed up for each cluster.
