چکیده

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 remained largely unnoticed for more than 50 years, until it was widely propogated in the book by Deming [2]. The latter has become so well known that the common label for the method is “Deming regression” in nearly all fields in which it is used. There are a number of alternate ways to compute this regression line. The Deming line will be the first principle component of the centered data, the first eignevector of the matrix Z whose 2 columns are the centered x and y vectors, or the first component of a singular value decomposition or factor analysis of Z. A partial least squares (PLS) or structural equation modeling (SEM) model fit to x and y will also recover the Deming estimate of slope. There would appear to be little need for yet another program to compute this quantity other than providing a recognizable name to search for in the R libraries. For laboratory work, however, it is the generalized Deming method that is of most interest. Returning to our original

Theil-Sen Estimators in a Multiple Linear Regression Model

In this article, we propose the Theil-Sen estimators of parameters in a multiple linear regression model based on a multivariate median, generalizing the Theil-Sen estimator in a simple linear regression model. The proposed estimator is shown to be robust, consistent and asymptotically normal under mild conditions, and super-efficient when the error distribution is discontinuous. It can be chos...

Robust Regression Estimators When There are Tied Values

There is a vast literature on robust regression estimators, the bulk of which assumes that the dependent (outcome) variable is continuous. Evidently, there are no published results on the impact of tied values in terms of the Type I error probability. A minor goal in this paper to comment generally on problems created by tied values when testing the hypothesis of a zero slope. Simulations indic...

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...

Comparing Robust Regression Lines Associated with Two Dependent Groups When There Is Heteroscedasticity

The paper deals with three approaches to comparing the regression lines corresponding to two dependent groups when using a robust estimator. The focus is on the Theil–Sen estimator with some comments about alternative estimators that might be used. The first approach is to test the global hypothesis that the two groups have equal intercepts and slopes in a manner that allows a heteroscedastic e...

Multivariate Spatial U-Quantiles: a Bahadur-Kiefer Representation, a Theil-Sen Estimator for Multiple Regression, and a Robust Dispersion Estimator

A leading multivariate extension of the univariate quantiles is the so-called “spatial” or “geometric” notion, for which sample versions are highly robust and conveniently satisfy a Bahadur-Kiefer representation. Another extension of univariate quantiles has been to univariate U-quantiles, on the basis of which, for example, the well-known Hodges-Lehmann location estimator has a natural formula...
