Fepois: Acceleration Algorithm described in the `pplmhdfe` paper #456

Open s3alfisc opened 1 month ago

s3alfisc commented 1 month ago

The ppmlhdfe paper implements an acceleration procedure for its iterated weighted least square algorithm.

The idea is to start with a low tolerance of the demeaning algorithm, which is tightened to closer the algorithm is to reach convergence.
