Abstract

Robust estimation methods can effectively eliminate the influence of gross errors on parameter estimation. However, the extent of gross errors eliminated (EGEE) by robust estimation methods is far-reaching. This article presents a new approach to determine EGEE by robust estimation method. Taking multiple linear regressions (2–5) as examples, simulation experiments were conducted to compare the EGEE of 14 frequently used robust estimation methods. This article confirms several additional efficient robust estimation methods for dealing with multiple linear regressions, as well as the minimum number of observations needed to eliminate gross errors in certain ranges completely.
