A SAS Macro for Theil Regression

Deming, Theil-Sen, and Passing-Bablock Regression

Least squares regression of y on x assumes that the x variate is measured without error, and minimizes the sum of squared vertical distance between the data points y and the fitted regression line. Regression of x on y minimizes the horizontal distances. Adcock [1] in 1878 suggested minimizing the sum of squared horizontal + vertical distances to the predicted values. However the idea of Adcock...

Strotz (1956) …rst suggested that people are more impatient when making short-run tradeo¤s than long-run ones. Many experimental studies supports this conjecture. Retirement decisions …t this description: when deciding whether retire or not, individuals may weight too much the costs of remaining at work (i.e. disutility of working an additional year, implicit tax on continued activity) and too ...

Consistency and Asymptotic Distribution of the Theil-Sen Estimator

In this paper, we obtain the strong consistency and asymptotic distribution of the Theil-Sen estimator in simple linear regression models with arbitrary error distributions. We show that the Theil-Sen estimator is super-efficient when the error distribution is discontinuous and that its asymptotic distribution may or may not be normal when the error distribution is continuous. We give an exampl...
