摘要

For generation, statistics practitioners have been relying on the ordinary least squares (OLS) method in the linear regression model due to its optimal properties and ease of computation. The OLS gives unbiased and minimum variance among all unbiased linear estimators when the errors are independent, identically and normally distributed with mean 0 and constant variance σ~2. The homogeneity of error variances (homoscedasticity) is an important assumption in linear regression for which the least squares estimators enjoy the minimum variance property. However, in practice it is difficult to retain the error variance homogeneous for many practical reasons and thus there arises the problem of heteroscedasticity. We generally apply the weighted least squares (WLS) procedure to estimate the regression parameters when heteroscedasticity occurs in the data. The WLS is equivalent to performing the ordinary least squares (OLS) on the transformed variables. However, there is evidence that the WLS estimators are easily affected by a few atypical observations that we often call outliers. In this paper we take the initiative to remedy these two problems simultaneously. We have proposed a robust procedure for the estimation of regression parameters in the presence of heteroscedasticity and outliers. Here we have employed robust techniques twice, once in estimating the group variances and again in determining weights for the least squares. We call this method robust weighted least squares (RWLS). The performance of the newly proposed method is investigated extensively by real data sets and Monte Carlo simulations. The results of the study indicate that the RWLS method is more efficient than the existing methods.
