Description:
A flexible framework for estimating factor models with multiple latent variables. Supports linear, probit, ordered probit, and multinomial logit model components. Features include multi-stage estimation, automatic parameter initialization, analytical gradients and Hessians, and parallel estimation. Methods are described in Heckman, Humphries, and Veramendi (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2015.12.001>, Heckman, Humphries, and Veramendi (2018) <doi:10.1086/698760>, and Humphries, Joensen, and Veramendi (2024) <doi:10.1257/pandp.20241026>.
