Arguments

x

An lmrob object produced using an MM/SM estimator chain

...

Additional arguments to be passed to bread

Details

This is part of a workaround for an issue in the robustbase code affecting sandwich covariance estimation. The issue in question is issue #6471, robustbase project on R-Forge. This function contributes to providing sandwich estimates of covariance-adjusted standard errors for robust linear covariance adjustment models.

Value

A n\times (p+1) matrix where the first column corresponds to the scale estimate and the remaining p colums correspond to the coefficients
