  • Weighted least squares (WLS) estimation is often easily used for the data with heteroscedastic errors because it is intuitive and computationally inexpensive. However, WLS estimator is less robust to a few outliers and sometimes it may be inefficient. In order to overcome robustness problems, Box-Cox transformation, Huber's M estimation, bisquare estimation, and Yohai's MM estimation have been proposed. Also, more efficient estimations than WLS have been suggested such as Bayesian methods (Cepeda and Achcar, 2009) and semiparametric methods (Kim and Ma, 2012) in heteroscedastic error models. Recently, Çelik (2015) proposed the weight methods applicable to the heteroscedasticity patterns including butterfly-distributed residuals and megaphone-shaped residuals. In this paper, we review heteroscedastic regression estimators related to robust or efficient estimation and describe their properties. Also, we analyze cost data of U.S. Electricity Producers in 1955 using the methods discussed in the paper.

  • Robust regression based on M-estimator reduces and/or bounds the influence of outliers in the y-direction only. Therefore, when several influential observations exist, diagnostics in the robust regression is required in order to detect them. In this paper, we propose influence diagnostics in the robust regression based on M-estimator and its one-step version. Noting that M-estimator can be obtained through iterative weighted least squares regression by using internal weights, we apply the weighted least squares (WLS) regression diagnostics to robust regression.

  • In recent years, the size of data set which we usually handle is enormous, so a lot of outliers could be included in data set. Therefore the robust procedures that automatically handle outliers become very importance issue. We consider the robust estimation problem of location parameter in the univariate case. In this paper, we propose a new method for defining robustness weights for the weighted mean based on the median distance of observations and compare its performance with several existing robust estimators by a simulation study. It turns out that the proposed method is very competitive.

  • The shrink parameter in ridge regression may be contaminated by outlying points. We propose robust cross validation scores in ridge regression instead of classical cross validation. We use robust location estimators such as median, least trimmed squares, absolute mean for robust cross validation scores. The robust scores have global robustness. Simulations are performed to show the effectiveness of the proposed estimators.

  • Lee, et al. (1999) proposed a unique but universal robust objective function replacing the square objective function for the radial basis function network, and demonstrated some advantages. In this article, the robust objective function in Lee, et al. (1999) is adapted for a multilayer perceptron (MLP). The shape of the robust objective function is formed by the scale parameter. Another method of determining a proper value of that parameter is proposed.

  • Robust design is an approach to reduce the performance variation of mutiple responses in products and processes. In fact, in many experimental designs require the simultaneous optimization of multiple responses. In this paper, we propose how to simultaneously optimize multiple responses for robust design when data are collected from a combined array. The proposed method is based on the quadratic loss function. An example is illustrated to show the proposed method.

  • 시계열 자료에서의 특이치, 특히 이 가운데 가법적 특이치가 모형의 식별, 모수의 추정 및 예측과 관련된 분석 전과정을 왜곡하는 것은 잘 알려져 있다. 그러나 특이치가 다수 발생하는 경우, 특히 연속적으로 집단을 이루어 발생할 때 대부분 특이치 검출방법은 가면화효과와 수렁화효과때문에 이들을 정확히 판별하지 못한다. 본 논문에서는 p차 자기상관회귀모형에 대한 고붕괴점 회귀추정량을 이용한 양방향 로버스트 필터방법을 제안했다. 실제 사례와 모의실험을 통해 제안한 방법이 매우 정확하게 시계열 자료에 포함된 특이치들을 검출하고 있음을 확인할 수 있다.

  • In financial time series, the autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic (ARCH) models have been widely used for modeling conditional variances. In many cases, non-normality or heavy-tailed distributions of the data have influenced the estimation methods under normality assumption. To solve this problem, a robust function for the conditional variances of the errors is proposed and compared the relative efficiencies of the estimators with other conventional models.

  • In this paper we consider the problem of parameter change based on the cusum test proposed by Lee et al. (2003). The cusum test statistic is constructed utilizing the estimator minimizing density-based divergence measures. It is shown that under regularity conditions, the test statistic has the limiting distribution of the sup of standard Brownian bridge. Simulation results demonstrate that the cusum test is robust when there arc outliers.
