Abstract

The least absolute deviations (LAD) estimation for nonlinear regression models with randomly censored data is studied and the asymptotic properties of LAD estimators such as consistency, boundedness in probability and asymptotic normality are established. Simulation results show that for the problems with censored data, LAD estimation performs much more robustly than the least squares estimation.
