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,...

In this paper, we derive elementary M- and optimally robust asymptotic linear (AL)-estimates for the parameters of an Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process. Simulation and estimation of the process are already well-studied, see Iacus (Simulation and inference for stochastic differential equations....

The Cox proportional hazards model has become the most widely used procedure in survivalanalysis. The theoretical basis of the original model has been developed in various exten-sions. In the recent years, vital research has been undertaken involving the incorporation ofrandom effects to...
