...A well-known approach by Geman and Geman (1984) to solve the optimization problem (7) globally could also be employed, but since this method is much more time consuming than ICM, we prefer to use the latter....

...PERFORMANCE OF FAST-MCD To get an idea of the performance of the overall algorithm, we start by applying FAST-MCD to some small datasets taken from Rousseeuw and Leroy (1987). To be precise, these were all regression datasets, but we ran FASTMCD only on the explanatory variables-that is, not using the response variable....

...Positive-breakdown methods such as the MVE and least trimmed squares regression (Rousseeuw 1984) are increasingly being used in practice-for example, in finance, chemistry, electrical engineering, process control, and computer vision (Meer, Mintz, Rosenfeld, and Kim 1991)....

...Moreover, S-PLUS automatically provides the diagnostic plot of Rousseeuw and van Zomeren (1990), which plots the robust residuals versus the robust distances....
