This paper considers the impact of using the regularisation techniques for the analysis of the extended skew-normal distribution. The approach is estimated using a number of techniques and compared to OLS based LASSO and ridge regressions in addition to non- constrained skew-normal regression.

The computation of robust regression estimates often relies on minimization of a convex functional on a convex set. In this paper we discuss a general technique for a large class of convex functionals to compute the minimizers iteratively which is closely related to majorization-minimization...

Most dimension reduction methods based on nonparametric smoothing are highly sensitive to outliers and to data coming from heavy tailed distributions. We show that the recently proposed MAVE and OPG methods by Xia et al. (2002) allow us to make them robust in a relatively straightforward way...
