Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is very sensitive in presence of outliers. One of the most appealing robust methods for principal component analysis uses the Projection-Pursuit principle. Here, one projects the data on a lower-dimensional space such that a robust measure of variance of the...

The L1-median is a robust estimator of multivariate location with good statistical properties. Several algorithms for computing the L1-median are available. Problem specific algorithms can be used, but also general optimization routines. The aim is to compare different algorithms with respect to...

We study a group lasso estimator for the multivariate linear regression model that accounts for correlated error terms. A block coordinate descent algorithm is used to compute this estimator. We perform a simulation study with categorical data and multivariate time series data, typical settings...
