Abstract
Abstract A few repeats of a simple forward search from a random starting point are shown to provide sufficiently robust parameter estimates to reveal masked multiple outliers. The stability of the patterns obtained is exhibited by the stalactite plot. The robust estimators used are least median of squares for regression and the minimum volume ellipsoid for multivariate outliers. The forward search also has potential as an algorithm for calculation of these parameter estimates. For large problems, parallel computing provides appreciable reduction in computational time.
