We determine the increase of the maximum risk over the minimax risk in the case that the optimally robust estimator for the false radius is used. This is done by numerical solution of the implicit equations which determine optimal robustness, for location, scale, and linear regression models,...

Package distrMod provides an object oriented (more specifically S4-style) implementation of probability models. Moreover, it contains functions and methods to compute minimum criterion estimators - in particular, maximum likelihood and minimum distance estimators.
