Fast Fixed-Effects Estimations

Fast and user-friendly estimation of econometric models with multiple fixed-effects. Includes ordinary least squares (OLS), instrumental variables (IV), generalized linear models (GLM), maximum likelihood estimation (ML), and the negative binomial. The core of the package is based on optimized parallel C++ code, scaling especially well for large data sets. The method to obtain the fixed-effects coefficients is based on Bergé, Butts, McDermott (2026) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2601.21749>. Further provides tools to export and view the results of several estimations with intuitive design to change the standard-errors.
