LINEAR REGRESSION MT


The Linear Regression MT application module is a set of procedures for estimating single equations or a simultaneous system of equations. It allows constraints on coefficients, calculates het-con standard errors, and includes two-stage least squares, three-stage least squares, and seemingly unrelated regression. It is thread-safe and takes advantage of structures found in later versions of GAUSS.

 

FEATURES

  • Calculates heteroskedastic-consistent standard errors, and performs both influence and collinearity diagnostics inside the ordinary least squares routine (OLS).
  • All regression procedures can be run at a specified data range.
  • Performs multiple linear hypothesis testing with any form.
  • Estimates regressions with linear restrictions.
  • Accommodates large data sets with multiple variables.
  • Stores all important test statistics and estimated coefficients in an efficient manner.

  • Both three-stage least squares and seemingly unrelated regression can be estimated iteratively.
  • Thorough Documentation.
  • The comprehensive user’s guide includes both a well-written tutorial and an informative reference section. Additional topics are included to enrich the usage of the procedures. These include:
    • Joint confidence region for beta estimates.
    • Tests for heteroskedasticity.
    • Tests of structural change.
    • Using ordinary least squares to estimate a translog cost function.
    • Using seemingly unrelated regression to estimate a system of cost share equations.
    • Using three-stage least squares to estimate Klein’s Model I.

 

  • Platform: Windows, Mac, and Linux.
  • Requirements: GAUSS/GAUSS Light version 8.0 or higher.
