A Class of Locally and Globally Robust Regression Estimates
We present a new class of regression estimates called generalized τ estimates. These estimates are defined by minimizing the τ scale of the weighted residuals, with weights that penalize high-leverage observations. Like the τ estimates, the generalized τ estimates utilize for their definition two lo...
