文摘The classical least-squares methods may only solve LS β when the variance-covariance (matrix ∑(σ2 ∑)) is known (σ2 is unknown and ∑ is known) in linear model. The author thinks that maximum likelihood type estimation (M-estimation) should replace LS estimation. The paper discusses robust estimations of parameter vector and variance components for corresponding error model based on the principle of maximum likelihood type estimations (M-estimations). The influence functions are given respectively.
