statsmodels.robust.scale.MScale#

class statsmodels.robust.scale.MScale(chi_func, scale_bias)[source]#

M-scale estimation

Parameters:
chi_funccallable

The rho or chi function for the moment condition for estimating scale.

scale_biasfloat

Factor in moment condition to obtain fisher consistency of the scale estimate at the normal distribution.

Methods

__call__(data, **kwds)

Call self as a function.

fit(data[, start_scale, maxiter, rtol, atol])

Estimate M-scale using iteration

Notes

Experimental interface, arguments and options will still change.
