LAD Regression and Nonparametric Methods for Detecting Outliers and Leverage Points
نویسندگان
چکیده
The detection of influential observations for the standard least squares regression model is a question that has been extensively studied. LAD regression diagnostics offers alternative approaches whose main feature is the robustness. In this paper a new approach for nonparametric detection of influencial observations in LAD regression models is presented and compared with other classical methods of diagnostics.

Robust weighted LAD regression
The least squares linear regression estimator is well-known to be highly sensitive to unusual observations in the data, and as a result many more robust estimators have been proposed as alternatives. One of the earliest proposals was least-sum of absolute deviations (LAD) regression, where the regression coefficients are estimated through minimization of the sum of the absolute values of the re...
متن کاملWeighted Least Absolute Deviation Lasso Estimator
The linear absolute shrinkage and selection operator(Lasso) method improves the low prediction accuracy and poor interpretation of the ordinary least squares(OLS) estimate through the use of L1 regularization on the regression coefficients. However, the Lasso is not robust to outliers, because the Lasso method minimizes the sum of squared residual errors. Even though the least absolute deviatio...
متن کاملA New Nonparametric Regression for Longitudinal Data
In many area of medical research, a relation analysis between one response variable and some explanatory variables is desirable. Regression is the most common tool in this situation. If we have some assumptions for such normality for response variable, we could use it. In this paper we propose a nonparametric regression that does not have normality assumption for response variable and we focus ...
متن کاملRobust nonnegative garrote variable selection in linear regression
Robust selection of variables in a linear regression model is investigated. Many variable selection methods are available, but very few methods are designed to avoid sensitivity to vertical outliers aswell as to leverage points. The nonnegative garrotemethod is a powerful variable selection method, developed originally for linear regression but recently successfully extended to more complex reg...
متن کاملSUGI 27: Robust Regression and Outlier Detection with the ROBUSTREG Procedure
Robust regression is an important tool for analyzing data that are contaminated with outliers. It can be used to detect outliers and to provide resistant (stable) results in the presence of outliers. This paper introduces the ROBUSTREG procedure, which is experimental in SAS/STAT Version 9. The ROBUSTREG procedure implements the most commonly used robust regression techniques. These include M ...
