  1. tobit

    Tobit is a statistical model, also known as a censored regression model, proposed by economist James Tobin. It is used to estimate the relationships between a non-negative dependent variable and an independent variable when there is either left- or right-censoring in the dependent variable. Censoring occurs when the value of an observation is partially known; for instance, all negative values might be recorded as zero, causing left censoring. The tobit model provides a solution to these cases by estimating parameters that express the relationship among the variables, taking into account the limit observations.
