Frisch–Waugh–Lovell theorem

Frisch–Waugh–Lovell theorem (Redirected from FWL theorem) Jump to navigation Jump to search In econometrics, the Frisch–Waugh–Lovell (FWL) theorem is named after the econometricians Ragnar Frisch, Frederick V. Waugh, and Michael C. Lovell.[1][2][3] The Frisch–Waugh–Lovell theorem states that if the regression we are concerned with is: {displaystyle Y=X_{1}Beta _{1}+X_{2}Beta _{2}+u} wo {Anzeigestil X_{1}} und {Anzeigestil X_{2}} sind {displaystyle ntimes k_{1}} und {displaystyle ntimes k_{2}} matrices respectively and where {Anzeigestil Beta _{1}} und {Anzeigestil Beta _{2}} are conformable, then the estimate of {Anzeigestil Beta _{2}} will be the same as the estimate of it from a modified regression of the form: {Anzeigestil M_{X_{1}}Y=M_{X_{1}}X_{2}Beta _{2}+M_{X_{1}}u,} wo {Anzeigestil M_{X_{1}}} projects onto the orthogonal complement of the image of the projection matrix {Anzeigestil X_{1}(X_{1}^{mathsf {T}}X_{1})^{-1}X_{1}^{mathsf {T}}} . Äquivalent, MX1 projects onto the orthogonal complement of the column space of X1. Speziell, {Anzeigestil M_{X_{1}}=I-X_{1}(X_{1}^{mathsf {T}}X_{1})^{-1}X_{1}^{mathsf {T}},} and this particular orthogonal projection matrix is known as the annihilator matrix.[4][5] The vector {textstyle M_{X_{1}}Y} is the vector of residuals from regression of {textstyle Y} on the columns of {textstyle X_{1}} .

The theorem implies that the secondary regression used for obtaining {Anzeigestil M_{X_{1}}} is unnecessary when the predictor variables are uncorrelated (this never happens in practice): using projection matrices to make the explanatory variables orthogonal to each other will lead to the same results as running the regression with all non-orthogonal explanators included.

It is not clear who did prove this theorem first. Jedoch, in the context of linear regression, it was known well before Frisch and Waugh paper. In der Tat, it can be found as section 9, pag.184, in the detailed analysis of partial regressions by George Udny Yule published in 1907.[6] It is of some interest to notice that, in their paper, Frisch and Waugh use, for the partial regression coefficients, the notation introduced by Yule in his 1907 Papier. This was quite well known and used by 1933 as Yule presents a detailed discussion of partial correlation, einschließlich, among much else, his 1907 notation and the "Frisch, Waugh and Lovell" Satz, as chapter 10 of his, quite successful, Statistics textbook first issued in 1911 die, durch 1932, had reached its tenth edition.[7] References ^ Frisch, Ragnar; Waugh, Frederick V.
