Examples
data(pension) plot(pension)summary(lm.p<-lm(Reserves ~., data=pension)) summary(lmR.p <- lmrob(Reserves ~., data=pension)) summary(lts.p <- ltsReg(Reserves ~., data=pension)) abline( lm.p) abline(lmR.p, col=2) abline(lts.p, col=2, lty=2)## MM: "the" solution is much simpler: plot(pension, log = "xy") lm.lp<-lm(log(Reserves) ~ log(Income), data=pension) lmR.lp <- lmrob(log(Reserves) ~ log(Income), data=pension) plot(log(Reserves) ~ log(Income), data=pension) ## no difference between LS and robust: abline( lm.lp) abline(lmR.lp, col=2)
