SemiParSampleSelObject: Fitted SemiParSampleSel object

Description

A fitted semiparametric sample selection object returned by function SemiParSampleSel and of class "SemiParSampleSel".

Arguments

Value

  • fitList of values and diagnostics extracted from the output of the algorithm. For instance, fit$gradient and fit$S.h return the gradient vector and overall penalty matrix scaled by its smoothing parameters, for the bivariate model. See the documentation of trust for details on the diagnostics provided.
  • gam1Univariate fit for selection equation. See the documentation of mgcv for full details.
  • gam2Univariate fit for outcome equation.
  • gam2.1Univariate fit for equation 2, estimated using an adaptation of the Heckman sample selection correction procedure.
  • coefficientsThe coefficients of the fitted semiparametric sample selection model.
  • weightsPrior weights used during model fitting.
  • spEstimated smoothing parameters of the smooth components for the fitted sample selection model.
  • iter.spNumber of iterations performed for the smoothing parameter estimation step.
  • iter.ifNumber of iterations performed in the initial step of the algorithm.
  • iter.innerNumber of iterations performed inside smoothing parameter estimation step.
  • start.vStarting values for all model parameters of the semiparametric sample selection algorithm. These are obtained using the Heckman sample selection correction approach when starting values are not provided.
  • phiEstimated dispersion for the response of the outcome equation. In the normal bivariate case, this corresponds to the variance.
  • sigmaEstimated standard deviation for the response of the outcome equation in the case of normal marginal distribution of the outcome.
  • shapeEstimated shape parameter for the response of the outcome equation in the case of gamma marginal distribution of the outcome.
  • nuEstimated shape parameter for the response of the outcome equation in the case of a discrete distribution.
  • thetaEstimated coefficient linking the two equations. In the normal bivariate case, this corresponds to the correlation coefficient.
  • nSample size.
  • n.selNumber of selected observations.
  • X1Design matrix associated with the first linear predictor.
  • X2Design matrix associated with the second linear predictor.
  • X1.d2Number of columns of the design matrix for equation 1. This is used for internal calculations.
  • X2.d2Number of columns of the design matrix for equation 2.
  • l.sp1Number of smooth components in equation 1.
  • l.sp2Number of smooth components in equation 2.
  • HePenalized hessian.
  • HeShUnpenalized hessian.
  • VbInverse of the penalized hessian. This corresponds to the Bayesian variance-covariance matrix used for `confidence' interval calculations.
  • FThis is given by Vb*HeSh.
  • BivDType of bivariate copula distribution employed.
  • marginsMargins used in the bivariate copula specification.
  • t.edfTotal degrees of freedom of the estimated sample selection model. It is calculated as sum(diag(F)).
  • bs.mgfitA list of values and diagnostics extracted from magic in mgcv.
  • conv.spIf TRUE then the smoothing parameter selection algorithm converged.
  • wor.cWorking model quantities given by the square root of the weight matrix times the pseudo-data vector and design matrix, rW.Z and rW.X.
  • eta1,eta2Estimated linear predictors for the two equations.
  • y1Binary outcome of the selection equation.
  • y2Dependent variable of the outcome equation.
  • logLikValue of the (unpenalized) log-likelihood evaluated at the (penalized or unpenalized) parameter estimates.
  • fpIf TRUE, then a fully parametric model was fitted.
  • pPen1, pPen2List specifying any penalties to be applied to the parametric model terms of the model equations.
  • X2sFull design matrix of outcome equation.
