Computation of the optimally robust IC for Ha4 estimators
The function rlsOptIC.Ha4
computes the optimally robust IC for
Ha4 estimators in case of normal location with unknown scale and
(convex) contamination neighborhoods. The definition of
these estimators can be found in Subsection 8.5.2 of Kohl (2005).
rlsOptIC.Ha4(r, a.start = 0.25, b.start = 2.5, c.start = 5, k.start = 1, delta = 1e-06, MAX = 100)
r |
non-negative real: neighborhood radius. |
a.start |
positive real: starting value for a. |
b.start |
positive real: starting value for b. |
c.start |
positive real: starting value for c. |
k.start |
positive real: starting value for k. |
delta |
the desired accuracy (convergence tolerance). |
MAX |
if a or b or c or k are beyond the admitted values,
|
The computation of the optimally robust IC for Ha4 estimators
is based on optim
where MAX
is used to
control the constraints on a, b, c and k. The optimal values of
the tuning constants a, b, c and k can be read off
from the slot Infos
of the resulting IC.
