Here, we introduce delicatessen, a Python library that automates the tedious calculations of M-estimation, and supports both built-in user-specified estimating equations. To highlight the utility of delicatessen for quantitative data analysis, we provide several illustrations common to life science research: linear regression robust to outliers, estimation of a dose-response curve, and standardization of results.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.11300v3","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2203.11300v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"delicatessen-m-estimation-in-python","repo_url":"https://github.com/pzivich/delicatessen","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
