clusterIV - Clustered Jackknife Instrumental Variables Estimation
Tools for instrumental variables estimation and inference
under clustered errors with many instruments. The current
release provides the cluster-jackknife IV estimator (CJIVE) of
Frandsen, Leslie and McIntyre (2025) <doi:10.1162/rest.a.263>
for a single endogenous regressor in a just-identified design,
with cluster-robust inference: each observation's first-stage
value is fitted leaving out its entire cluster, which removes
the many-instrument bias that survives clustering. The
leave-cluster-out fits use an exact Woodbury block update --
one factorisation of the instrument Gram matrix plus a small
solve per cluster -- so the estimator scales to large samples.
A companion 'iv_compare()' reports ordinary least squares,
two-stage least squares, the observation-level jackknife and
CJIVE on a common cluster-robust standard error.
