Confidence Interval Robustness with Long-Tailed Symmetric Distributions
Journal of the American Statistical Association, 1976Abstract A variety of 95-percent confidence interval procedures have been examined in some detail using Monte Carlo techniques. These estimators were tried on simulated samples of sizes 10 and 20 from a spectrum of distributions ranging from the Gaussian to the long-tailed Cauchy.

Robust Confidence Intervals for a Location Parameter: The Configural Approach
Journal of the American Statistical Association, 1986Abstract A conditional approach to robustness is described and applied to interval estimation for a location parameter. Two new types of confidence interval estimators using two-dimensional numerical integrations within location-and-scale configurations emerge. Strong confidence intervals have robust conditional coverage probabilities.

The smoothing parameter, confidence interval and robustness for smoothing splines
Journal of Nonparametric Statistics, 2005Diagnostic measure for nonparametric regression using splines is given. The measure which incorporates important information provided by the smoothing parameter has the potential of identifying ‘unusual’ observations. These influential observations can substantially influence the global behavior of the fitted curve.

A Robust Confidence Interval for Samples of Five Observations.
1979Abstract : A robust confidence interval using biweights for the case of five observations is proposed when the underlying distribution has somewhat heavier tails than the Gaussian. The distribution of a t-like statistic is approximated by a Student's t on the nominal four degrees of freedom using different scale factors which depend upon the value of ...
