estimation.demean

estimation.demean(x, flist, weights, tol=1e-08, maxiter=100000)

Demean an array.

Workhorse for demeaning an input array x based on the specified fixed effects and weights via the alternating projections algorithm.

Parameters

Name Type Description Default
x numpy.ndarray Input array of shape (n_samples, n_features). Needs to be of type float. required
flist numpy.ndarray Array of shape (n_samples, n_factors) specifying the fixed effects. Needs to already be converted to integers. required
weights numpy.ndarray Array of shape (n_samples,) specifying the weights. required
tol float Tolerance criterion for convergence. Defaults to 1e-08. 1e-08
maxiter int Maximum number of iterations. Defaults to 100_000. 100000

Returns

Type Description
tuple[numpy.ndarray, bool] A tuple containing the demeaned array of shape (n_samples, n_features) and a boolean indicating whether the algorithm converged successfully.
