Sounds good. The two methods are on separate branches that will most likely conflict if I try to merge them. So I will work on combining the two approaches.
@johnnybonney and @cblandhol, the Cholesky approach is on the branch bugfix/issue209-cholesky
.
Once I combine the two branches together, the only change you should need to make to your code are the ones @a-torgovitsky mentioned in the previous post.
Oops, I didn't mean to close this, but I suppose the issue is resolved. @cblandhol @johnnybonney The updates suggested by @a-torgovitsky have been implemented and merged into the master branch.
@johnnybonney and I have been re-running the results for our Angrist and Evans application with the direct MTR approach and are running into the "numerical issues" error mentioned in issue #186. Do you have any advice on how to deal with this issue?
Below I have made a reproducible example which illustrates the issue with the same specification and similar number of covariate values we use in our application, but which uses the dataset provided in the package.
Setting
presolve = FALSE
results in an uninformative error message:The MST estimator does not return the same issue:
