Robustness of Deepest Regression

Stefan Van Aelst and Peter Rousseeuw

Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 2000, vol. 73, issue 1, 82-106

Abstract: In this paper we investigate the robustness properties of the deepest regression, a method for linear regression introduced by Rousseeuw and Hubert [6]. We show that the deepest regression functional is Fisher-consistent for the conditional median, and has a breakdown value of in all dimensions. We also derive its influence function, and compare it with sensitivity functions.
