This paper deals with the local influence assessment of the effects of minor perturbations of data on corrected score estimators in the functional heteroscedastic measurement error models with known variances. By extending to the context of measurement error models the differential-geometrical...

In this paper we consider the Capital Asset Pricing Model under Elliptical (symmetric) Distributions. This class of distributions, which contains the normal distribution, t, contaminated normal and power exponential, among others, offers a more flexible framework for modelling asset prices or...

Based on the local influence approach with an appropriate perturbation scheme, measures are developed to assess the influence of an individual cell in contingency tables. The authors demonstrate that the developed measures are particularly suitable for sensitivity analysis in tables with...

We investigate local influence analysis in functional comparative calibration models with replicated data. A method for selecting appropriate perturbation schemes based on the expected Fisher information matrix with respect to the perturbation vector is proposed. It is shown that arbitrarily...

The aim of this paper is to introduce generalized symmetric linear models (GSLMs) in the same sense of generalized linear models (GLMs), in which a link function is defined to establish a relationship between the mean values of symmetric distributions and linear predictors. The class of...
