We discuss in this paper the robust equivariant nonparametric regression estimators for ergodic data with the k Nearst Neighbour (kNN) method. We consider a new robust regression estimator when the scale parameter is unknown. The principal aim is to prove the almost complete convergence (with rate) for the proposed estimator. Furthermore, a comparison study based on simulated data is also provided to illustrate the finite sample performances and the usefulness of the kNN approach and to prove the highly sensitive of the kNN approach to the presence of even a small proportion of outliers in the data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
