4.4. Robust Regression

The linear EIV regression model (Section 4.2.6) is employed for the discussion of the different regression techniques. In this model, the inliers are measured as

Equation 4.105

and their true values obey the constraints

Equation 4.106

The number of inliers must be much larger than the number of free parameters of the model, n1 » p. Nothing is assumed about the nn1 outliers.

After a robust method selects the inliers, they are often postprocessed with a nonrobust technique from the least squares (LS) family to obtain the ...
