Computing the (simplest) sandwich estimator incrementally

Read Original

This technical article details the method for incrementally computing the Huber/White heteroscedasticity-consistent (sandwich) variance estimator within the R `biglm` package. It breaks down the mathematical formulation of the estimator and discusses an efficient computational approach using QR decomposition for streaming data regression where data may exceed memory.
