Estimating Regression Coefficients by Minimizing the Dispersion of the Residuals
TL;DR: In this article, the authors give some measures of the dispersion of a set of numbers, and define their estimates as those values of the parameters that minimize the residual dispersion, which is asymptotically equivalent to estimates recently proposed by Jureckova.
Journal ArticleDOI
Robust Estimates of Location: Symmetry and Asymmetric Contamination
TL;DR: In this article, a model of asymmetric contamination of a symmetric distribution is formulated, in which the amount of asymmetry tends to zero as the sample size increases and the estimators are judged by their asymptotic mean squared error, a concept which is made meaningful by the model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Some Flexible Estimates of Location
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider two procedures for estimating the center of a symmetric distribution, which use the observations themselves to choose the form of the estimator, and show that these procedures are asymptotically as good as knowing beforehand which estimator in the family is best for the given distribution, and using that estimator.
