| Summary: | Outliers can influence the analysis of data in various different
ways. The outliers can lead to model misspecification, incorrect
analysis results and can make all estimation procedures
meaningless. In regression analysis, ordinary least square
estimation is most frequently used for estimation of the
parameters in the model. Unfortunately, this estimator is
sensitive to outliers. Thus, in this paper we proposed some
statistics for detection of outliers based on robust estimation,
namely least trimmed squares (LTS). A simulation study was
performed to prove that the alternative approach gives a better
results than OLS estimation to identify outliers. |
