We develop a new robust geographically weighted regression method in the presence of outliers. We embed the standard geographically weighted regression in robust objective function based on $gamma$-divergence. A novel feature of the proposed approach is that two tuning parameters that control robustness and spatial smoothness are automatically tuned in a data-dependent manner. Further, the proposed method can produce robust standard error estimates of the robust estimator and give us a reasonable quantity for local outlier detection. We demonstrate that the proposed method is superior to the existing robust version of geographically weighted regression through simulation and data analysis.

Although a number of studies have developed fast geographically weighted regression (GWR) algorithms for large samples, none of them has achieved linear-time estimation, which is considered a requisite for big data analysis in machine learning, geost
atistics, and related domains. Against this backdrop, this study proposes a scalable GWR (ScaGWR) for large datasets. The key improvement is the calibration of the model through a pre-compression of the matrices and vectors whose size depends on the sample size, prior to the leave-one-out cross-validation, which is the heaviest computational step in conventional GWR. This pre-compression allows us to run the proposed GWR extension so that its computation time increases linearly with the sample size. With this improvement, the ScaGWR can be calibrated with one million observations without parallelization. Moreover, the ScaGWR estimator can be regarded as an empirical Bayesian estimator that is more stable than the conventional GWR estimator. We compare the ScaGWR with the conventional GWR in terms of estimation accuracy and computational efficiency using a Monte Carlo simulation. Then, we apply these methods to a US income analysis. The code for ScaGWR is available in the R package scgwr. The code is embedded into C++ code and implemented in another R package, GWmodel.
A robust estimator is proposed for the parameters that characterize the linear regression problem. It is based on the notion of shrinkages, often used in Finance and previously studied for outlier detection in multivariate data. A thorough simulation
study is conducted to investigate: the efficiency with normal and heavy-tailed errors, the robustness under contamination, the computational times, the affine equivariance and breakdown value of the regression estimator. Two classical data-sets often used in the literature and a real socio-economic data-set about the Living Environment Deprivation of areas in Liverpool (UK), are studied. The results from the simulations and the real data examples show the advantages of the proposed robust estimator in regression.
This paper investigates the problem of making inference about a parametric model for the regression of an outcome variable $Y$ on covariates $(V,L)$ when data are fused from two separate sources, one which contains information only on $(V, Y)$ while
the other contains information only on covariates. This data fusion setting may be viewed as an extreme form of missing data in which the probability of observing complete data $(V,L,Y)$ on any given subject is zero. We have developed a large class of semiparametric estimators, which includes doubly robust estimators, of the regression coefficients in fused data. The proposed method is DR in that it is consistent and asymptotically normal if, in addition to the model of interest, we correctly specify a model for either the data source process under an ignorability assumption, or the distribution of unobserved covariates. We evaluate the performance of our various estimators via an extensive simulation study, and apply the proposed methods to investigate the relationship between net asset value and total expenditure among U.S. households in 1998, while controlling for potential confounders including income and other demographic variables.
A new family of penalty functions, adaptive to likelihood, is introduced for model selection in general regression models. It arises naturally through assuming certain types of prior distribution on the regression parameters. To study stability prope
rties of the penalized maximum likelihood estimator, two types of asymptotic stability are defined. Theoretical properties, including the parameter estimation consistency, model selection consistency, and asymptotic stability, are established under suitable regularity conditions. An efficient coordinate-descent algorithm is proposed. Simulation results and real data analysis show that the proposed method has competitive performance in comparison with existing ones.
Parameter estimation of mixture regression model using the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is highly sensitive to outliers. Here we propose a fast and efficient robust mixture regression algorithm, called Component-wise Adaptive Trimming (CAT
) method. We consider simultaneous outlier detection and robust parameter estimation to minimize the effect of outlier contamination. Robust mixture regression has many important applications including in human cancer genomics data, where the population often displays strong heterogeneity added by unwanted technological perturbations. Existing robust mixture regression methods suffer from outliers as they either conduct parameter estimation in the presence of outliers, or rely on prior knowledge of the level of outlier contamination. CAT was implemented in the framework of classification expectation maximization, under which a natural definition of outliers could be derived. It implements a least trimmed squares (LTS) approach within each exclusive mixing component, where the robustness issue could be transformed from the mixture case to simple linear regression case. The high breakdown point of the LTS approach allows us to avoid the pre-specification of trimming parameter. Compared with multiple existing algorithms, CAT is the most competitive one that can handle and adaptively trim off outliers as well as heavy tailed noise, in different scenarios of simulated data and real genomic data. CAT has been implemented in an R package `RobMixReg available in CRAN.
