  • An M-estimator minimizes the function

$$Q(e_i, \rho) = \sum_i~\rho \left (\frac{e_i}{s}\right )$$

where $\rho$ is a symmetric function of the residuals

  • The effect of $\rho$ is to reduce the influence of outliers
  • $s$ is an estimate of scale.
  • The robust estimates $\hat{\beta}$ are computed by the iteratively re-weighted least squares algorithm
  • We have several choices available for the weighting functions to be used

Scale Estimators

  • Robust estimates of the location
In [18]:
x = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 500])
  • The mean is not a robust estimator of location
In [19]:
x.mean()
Out[19]:
102.0
  • The median, on the other hand, is a robust estimator with a breakdown point of 50%
In [20]:
np.median(x)
Out[20]:
3.0
  • Analagously for the scale
  • The standard deviation is not robust
In [21]:
x.std()
Out[21]:
199.00251254695254

Median Absolute Deviation

$$ median_i |X_i - median_j(X_j)|) $$

Standardized Median Absolute Deviation is a consistent estimator for $\hat{\sigma}$

$$\hat{\sigma}=K \cdot MAD$$

where $K$ depends on the distribution. For the normal distribution for example,

$$K = \Phi^{-1}(.75)$$
