Robust PCA for High-dimensional Data
Principal component analysis (PCA) is a well-known technique for dimension reduction. Classical PCA is based on the empirical mean and covariance matrix of the data, and hence is strongly affected by outlying ...

A Robust Hotelling Test
Hotelling’s T2 statistic is an important tool for inference about the center of a multivariate normal population. However, hypothesis tests and confidence intervals based on this statistic can be adversely affect...

A robust version of principal factor analysis
Our aim is to construct a factor analysis method that can resist the effect of outliers. We start with a highly robust initial covariance estimator, after which the factors can be obtained from maximum likelih...

Some Proposals for Fast HBD Regression
Existing high-breakdown regression estimators need substantial computation time. In this paper we propose a fast estimator for robust regression with a breakdown point of 1/3. This is not the highest value pos...
