On robust estimation for slope in linear functional relationship model

In this paper, we propose a robust parameter estimation method for the linear functional relationship model. We improved the maximum likelihood estimation using robust estimators and robust correlation coefficients to estimate the slope parameter. The performance of the propose method, MMLE, is comp...
