Non linear model estimations

Hi! I have a data set that are non linear in the parameters. If I estimate this with LS regression, there is a way of handeling this problem by iteration. However, when I insert the regression line and take the tab "Options" , this tab is greyed out, and I cannot choose anything. Does this...

Re: Outliers

So there isn't a way to generate a new group without the outliers? The reason I ask is because I first want to remove the outliers and then divide the data set into 4 quantiles and see the descriptive statistics of this. Isn't there a quote like this that removes outliers: genr assets = @recode (ass...

How do I remove outliers form a group of data? I would like to remove the 2,5 % lowest and 2,5 % highest observations within this datagroup and make a new group out of this data without the outliers. I have tried this quote, but it doesn't work: genr assets= @recode ( assets > @quantile ( assets, 0....

Sum of squares

I have a question regarding "Sum sq.dev" that appears when making the descriptive statistics table for subgroups. Is this the same as "sum of squares" (Sum(x-x(mean))^2)?

Re: Sorting groups after quantiles

If I perform this command [smpl if x<@quantile(x,.25)] I get the 0% - 25 % smallest observation for this group. If I then want the 25% - 50% smallest observations within this same group, how do I do that? If I use the qutoe: [smpl if x<@quantile (x,.5)] I get the 0% - 50% smallest observations, but ...

Re: Sorting groups after quantiles

I think it is the firm specific quantiles within the asset group I want, as I want to look at the features like debt level, dividendlevel... etc within the first quantile (of observations) within the asset group. The compare it to the second, third and fourth quantile (of observations) within the as...
