M ESTIMATION, S ESTIMATION, AND MM ESTIMATION IN ROBUST REGRESSION [PDF]

International Journal of Pure and Apllied Mathematics, 2014
In regression analysis the use of least squares method would not be appropriate in solving problem containing outlier or extreme observations. So we need a parameter estimation method which is robust where the value of the estimation is not much affected by small changes in the data. In this paper we present M estimation, S estimation and MM estimation

On the estimation of the derivatives of a function with the derivatives of an estimate

Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 1989
Let \({\tilde \theta}{}_ n(x)\) be an estimator of a smooth function \(\theta\) (x). It is proved that \(\theta\) (x) can be estimated easier than its derivative \(\theta^{(s)}(x)\), providing for \(\| {\hat \theta}_ n^{(s)}-\theta^{(s)}\|_ q\) an upper bound that depends on \(\| {\hat \theta}_ n-\theta \|_ q\).

On Improved Loss Estimation for Shrinkage Estimators

Statistical Science, 2012
Let $X$ be a random vector with distribution $P_ $ where $ $ is an unknown parameter. When estimating $ $ by some estimator $ (X)$ under a loss function $L( , )$, classical decision theory advocates that such a decision rule should be used if it has suitable properties with respect to the frequentist risk $R( , )$.
