ltsReg(x, ...)
## S3 method for class 'formula':
ltsReg(formula, data, subset, weights, na.action,
model = TRUE, x.ret = FALSE, y.ret = FALSE,
contrasts = NULL, offset, \dots)
## S3 method for class 'default':
ltsReg(x, y, intercept = TRUE, alpha = 1/2, nsamp = 500,
adjust = FALSE, mcd = TRUE, qr.out = FALSE, yname = NULL,
seed = NULL, use.correction=TRUE, control, \dots)

ltsReg
returns an object of class "lts"
.
The summary
method function is used to obtain (and
print) a summary table of the results, and plot()
can be used to plot them, see the the specific help pages.
The generic accessor functions coefficients
,
fitted.values
and residuals
extract various useful features of the value returned by
ltsReg
.
An object of class lts
is a list
containing at
least the following components:intercept=TRUE
), obtained after reweighting.length(best) == quan = h.alpha.n(alpha,n,p)
.y
containing the fitted values
of the response after reweighting.y

the weighted least squares regression.alpha
.intercept
.intercept=TRUE
).y
containing the raw residuals
from the regression.alpha=1/2
) is roughly $n / 2$, more precisely,
(n+p+1) %/% 2
where $n$ is the
total number of observations, but by setting alpha
, the user
may choose higher values up to n, where
$h = h(\alpha,n,p) =$ h.alpha.n(alpha,n,p)
. The LTS
estimate of the error scale is given by the minimum of the objective
function multiplied by a consistency factor
and a finite sample correction factor -- see Pison et al. (2002)
for details. The rescaling factors for the raw and final estimates are
returned also in the vectors raw.cnp2
and cnp2
of
length 2 respectively. The finite sample corrections can be suppressed
by setting use.correction=FALSE
. The computations are performed
using the Fast LTS algorithm proposed by Rousseeuw and Van Driessen (1999).
As always, the formula interface has an implied intercept term which can be
removed either by y ~ x - 1
or y ~ 0 + x
. See
formula
for more details.lmrob.S()
provides a fast S estimator with similar
breakdown point as ltsReg()
but better efficiency.
For data analysis, rather use lmrob
which is based on
lmrob.S

.data(heart)
## Default method works with 'x'-matrix and y-var:
heart.x <- data.matrix(heart[, 1:2]) # the X-variables
heart.y <- heart[,"clength"]
ltsReg(heart.x, heart.y)
data(stackloss)
ltsReg(stack.loss ~ ., data = stackloss)
