Abstract
En 中文
In this paper we develop multivariate outlier tests based on the high-breakdown Minimum Covariance Determinant estimator The rules that we propose have good performance under the null hypothesis of no outliers in the data and also appreciable power properties for the purpose of individual outlier detection This achievement is made possible by two orders of improvement over the currently available methodology First we suggest an approximation to the exact distribution of robust distances flour which cut-off values can be obtained even in small samples Our thresholds are accurate simple to implement and result in more powerful outlier identification rules than those obtained by calibrating the asymptotic distribution of distances The second power improvement comes from the addition of a new iteration step after one-step reweighting of the estimator The proposed methodology is motivated by asymptotic distributional results Its finite sample performance is evaluated through simulations and compared to that of available multivariate outlier tests
