Delicatessen: M-Estimation in Python
Abstract
M-estimation is a general statistical framework that simplifies estimation. Here, we introduce delicatessen, a Python library that automates the tedious calculations of M-estimation, and supports both built-in user-specified estimating equations. To highlight the utility of delicatessen for quantitative data analysis, we provide several illustrations common to life science research: linear regression robust to outliers, estimation of a dose-response curve, and standardization of results.
