statsmodels.genmod.generalized_estimating_equations.NominalGEE.score_obs

NominalGEE.score_obs(params, scale=None)

score first derivative of the loglikelihood for each observation.

Parameters:

• params (ndarray) – Parameter at which score is evaluated.

• scale (None or float) – If scale is None, then the default scale will be calculated. Default scale is defined by self.scaletype and set in fit. If scale is not None, then it is used as a fixed scale.

Returns:

score_obs – The first derivative of the loglikelihood function evaluated at params for each observation.

Return type:

ndarray, 2d
