Fitting Data with Errors in All Variables Using the Huber M-estimator
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article is concerned with the problem of data fitting where the model is nonlinear in the free parameters, using the Huber M-estimator. Under the assumption that there are significant errors in all the variables, an efficient algorithm is developed. Some numerical examples are given.

Instrumental Variables Regression with Measurement Errors and Multicollinearity in Instruments
In this paper we obtain a consistent estimator when there exist some measurement errors and multicollinearity in the instrumental variables in a two stage least square estimation of parameters. We investigate the asymptotic distribution of the proposed estimator and discuss its properties using some theoretical proofs and a simulation study. A real numerical application is also provided for mor...
متن کاملComparison of Small Area Estimation Methods for Estimating Unemployment Rate
Extended Abstract. In recent years, needs for small area estimations have been greatly increased for large surveys particularly household surveys in Sta­ tistical Centre of Iran (SCI), because of the costs and respondent burden. The lack of suitable auxiliary variables between two decennial housing and popula­ tion census is a challenge for SCI in using these methods. In general, the...
متن کاملWavelet Threshold Estimator of Semiparametric Regression Function with Correlated Errors
Wavelet analysis is one of the useful techniques in mathematics which is used much in statistics science recently. In this paper, in addition to introduce the wavelet transformation, the wavelet threshold estimation of semiparametric regression model with correlated errors with having Gaussian distribution is determined and the convergence ratio of estimator computed. To evaluate the wavelet th...
متن کاملVariance Breakdown of Huber ( M ) - estimators : n / p → m ∈ ( 1 , ∞ )
Huber’s gross-errors contamination model considers the class Fε of all noise distributions F = (1 − ε)Φ + εH, with Φ standard normal, ε ∈ (0, 1) the contamination fraction, and H the contaminating distribution. A half century ago, Huber evaluated the minimax asymptotic variance in scalar location estimation, min ψ max F∈Fε V (ψ, F ) = 1 I(F ∗ ε ) (1) where V (ψ,F ) denotes the asymptotic varian...
متن کاملOn Presentation a new Estimator for Estimating of Population Mean in the Presence of Measurement error and non-Response
Introduction According to the classic sampling theory, errors that are mainly considered in the estimations are sampling errors. However, most non-sampling errors are more effective than sampling errors in properties of estimators. This has been confirmed by researchers over the past two decades, especially in relation to non-response errors that are one of the most fundamental non-immolation...
