FENmlm-package: Fixed Effects Nonlinear Maximum Likelihood Models

Description

Efficient estimation of multiple fixed-effects maximum likelihood models with, possibly, non-linear in parameters right hand sides. Standard-errors can easily be clustered. It also includes tools to seamlessly export (to Latex) the results of various estimations.

Details

This package efficiently estimates maximum likelihood models with multiple fixed-effect (i.e. large factor variables).

The core function is femlm which estimates maximum likelihood models with, possibly, non-linear in parameters right hand sides. The ML families available are: poisson, negative binomial, logit and Gaussian.

Several features are also included such as the possibility to easily compute different types of standard-errors (including multi-way clustering).

It is possible to compare the results of severeal estimations by using the function res2table, and to export them to Latex using res2tex.
