vcov: Variance-Covariance Matrix for Fitted Ridge Model

vcov.lmridgeR Documentation

Variance-Covariance Matrix for Fitted Ridge Model

Description

The vcov function computes the variance-covariance matrix for the estimates of linear ridge regression model.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'lmridge'
vcov(object, ...)

Arguments

object

For VCOV method, an object of class "lmridge", i.e., a fitted model.

...

Not presently used in this implementation.

Details

The vcov function computes variance-covariance matrix for scalar or vector value of biasing parameter K provided as argument to lmridge function.

Value

A list of matrix of estimated covariances in the linear ridge regression model for scalar or vector biasing parameter KK is produced. Each list element has row and column names corresponding to the parameter names given by the coef(mod). List items are named correspond to values of biasing parameter K.

Note

Covariance will be without intercept term, as intercept term is not penalized in ridge regression.
