SARML has been replaced by sar.SARTML has been replaced by sart.CDnetNPL has been replaced by cdnet.simSARnet has been replaced by simsar.simTobitnet has been replaced by simsart.simCDnet has been replaced by simcdnet.netformation has been replaced by homophily.It is now possible to estimate the SART model under rational expectations. In the previous version, the SART model is only available under complete information.
This version follows the major revision of the paper in September 2022. - The count data model includes a more flexible specification. Especially, it is possible to assume that the cut points are not equally spaced for large values of the dependent variable. - I also implement a network formation model with degree heterogeneity as fixed effects (see Yan et al., 2019). - Models under incomplete information are now estimated using LBFGS algorithm of the package RcppNumerical. Thus, the optimization is performed in C++ and is very fast compared to the version 1.0.1.
Note and Warning found in the check for MACOS have been fixed
R defaulted to C++11 in R 4.0.0, to C++14 in R 4.2.0 and to C++17.
Fixed effect is allowed in the model SAR.
homophily has been changed to homophily.re for the random effect models.homophily.FE has heen changed to homophily.fe.homophily.re can be one side or two sides.homophily.fe can be one side or two sides.homophily.re.homophily.fe.homophili.data is added to convert data between directed network models and symmetric network models.cdnet now allows heterogeneity in peer effects. For example peer effects can be estimated between Blacks and Whites, Girls and Boys etc.cdnet allows heterogeneity in the cut-points. The cost function in the utility function is nonparametric and depends on some characteristics X such as gender, race, etc.
