Behavior of the sampling distribution of a robust coefficient of variation for exponential samples in the presence of outliers.

A robust form of the coefficient of variation, CVr, a unitless measure of spread constructed using the median absolute deviation and the sample median, is considered for contaminated samples from several exponential distributions. The cases studied are those involving samples from exponential dis...
