rlsOptIC.TuMad

Computation of the optimally robust IC for TuMad estimators


Description

The function rlsOptIC.TuMad computes the optimally robust IC for TuMad estimators in case of normal location with unknown scale and (convex) contamination neighborhoods. The definition of these estimators can be found in Subsection 8.5.4 of Kohl (2005).

Usage

rlsOptIC.TuMad(r, aUp = 10, delta = 1e-06)

Arguments

r

non-negative real: neighborhood radius.

aUp

positive real: the upper end point of the interval to be searched for a.

delta

the desired accuracy (convergence tolerance).

Details

The optimal value of the tuning constant a can be read off from the slot Infos of the resulting IC.

Value

Object of class "IC"
