On Robust Alternatives to the Maximum Likelihood Estimators of a Linear Functional Relationship

This paper discusses a number of candidates for robust estimator TS of a simple linear functional relationship (SLFR). The classical maximum likelihood estimators of the SLFR can be affected by the presence of possible outliers. This is due to the fact that they are mean-based estimators. Some med...
