Hi,
I have a bunch of data which is assumed to be instances of a geometric random
variable with outliers. How can I do a robust estimation of the parameter p so
that the effect of outliers is minimized?
As a part of the estimation process, I also need to know which are the outliers
in the data.
Is the L1 norm not equivalent to quantile regression for the 0.5th
quantile?
If so, quantreg would do it using rq with the defult value for tau.

(In addition to the pkg::sos search results the help archives can also
be reviewed.)

Willi, try this:
install.packages("sos")
library("sos")
findFn("L1 norm regression")
I find 34 hits but you'd have to look them over to see if any of them
are the sort of thing you want.

PLEASE do read the posting guide h
If you mean using random effects which have a fat-tailed distribution
this has been available in AD Model Builder's random effects package for
some time now. The general idea is to start with a random effect assumed
to be standard normal and then to transform it by the cumulative dist
function for
, modeling the random effects with t distributions. No
software were publicly available, as far as I know.

mates of variance.
Nothing in my collection of R robust estimation packages (robust,
robustbase and MASS being the obvious three) or on the Robust task view
seems to cover this, though it's entirely possible I've missed
something.
Any pointers (to R packages or literature) grateful
Hi,
Can somebody help recommend some good introductory textbooks on robust
estimation (graduate school level)?
I found this one, but the reviews on this are quite diverse.
