getInfV

Generic Function for the Computation of the asymptotic Variance of a Hampel type IC

Description

Generic function for the computation of the optimal clipping bound in case of infinitesimal robust models. This function is rarely called directly. It is used to compute optimally robust ICs.

Usage

getInfV(L2deriv, neighbor, biastype, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'UnivariateDistribution,ContNeighborhood,BiasType'
getInfV(L2deriv, 
         neighbor, biastype, clip, cent, stand)
## S4 method for signature 
## 'UnivariateDistribution,TotalVarNeighborhood,BiasType'
getInfV(L2deriv, 
         neighbor, biastype, clip, cent, stand)
## S4 method for signature 'RealRandVariable,ContNeighborhood,BiasType'
getInfV(L2deriv, 
         neighbor, biastype, Distr, V.comp, cent, stand, 
         w, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'RealRandVariable,TotalVarNeighborhood,BiasType'
getInfV(L2deriv,
         neighbor, biastype, Distr, V.comp, cent, stand,
         w, ...)
## S4 method for signature 
## 'UnivariateDistribution,ContNeighborhood,onesidedBias'
getInfV(L2deriv,
         neighbor, biastype, clip, cent, stand, ...)
## S4 method for signature 
## 'UnivariateDistribution,ContNeighborhood,asymmetricBias'
getInfV(L2deriv, 
         neighbor, biastype, clip, cent, stand)

Arguments

`L2deriv`	L2-derivative of some L2-differentiable family of probability measures.
`neighbor`	object of class `"Neighborhood"`.
`biastype`	object of class `"BiasType"`.
`...`	additional parameters, in particular for expectation `E`.
`clip`	positive real: clipping bound
`cent`	optimal centering constant.
`stand`	standardizing matrix.
`Distr`	standardizing matrix.
`V.comp`	matrix: indication which components of the standardizing matrix have to be computed.
`w`	object of class `RobWeight`; current weight.

Value

The asymptotic variance of an ALE to IC of Hampel type is computed.
