Estimation of Correlation Coefficients by Ellipsoidal Trimming

D. M. Titterington

Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series C, 1978, vol. 27, issue 3, 227-234

Abstract: The ellipsoid of minimal content containing a set of points is used as a trimming device and as a direct means of estimating correlation coefficients for mid‐truncated data. Numerical results are presented for simulated data and for Fisher's data from Iris setosa plants.
