statsmodels.genmod.generalized_estimating_equations.NominalGEE.mean_deriv¶ NominalGEE.mean_deriv(exog, lin_pred)[source]¶ Derivative of the expected endog with respect to the parameters. Parameters:¶ exog : array_like¶The exogeneous data at which the derivative is computed, number of rows must be a multiple of ncut. lin_pred : array_like¶The values of the linear predictor, length must be multiple of ncut. Returns:¶ The derivative of the expected endog with respect to the parameters.
