多变量数据中异常值的传播

Propagation of outliers in multivariate data

Fatemah Alqallaf, Stefan Van Aelst, Victor J. Yohai, Ruben H. Zamar

摘要:

我们研究了非标准数据污染模型下多变量位置的鲁棒估计的性能,如分量离群值(即,每个变量中的污染与其他变量无关)。这个模型带来了一个可能的新的统计误差来源,我们称之为“离群值传播”。“这种错误的来源是不寻常的,因为它是由数据处理本身产生的,并且发生在数据收集之后。定义并推导了柔性污染模型下稳健多变量位置估计的影响函数,并利用它研究了离群点传播的影响。此外,我们表明,标准的高故障仿射同变估计传播离群值,因此表现出不良的故障行为下分量污染时,尺寸$d$是高的。

英文摘要:

We investigate the performance of robust estimates of multivariate location under nonstandard data contamination models such as componentwise outliers (i.e., contamination in each variable is independent from the other variables). This model brings up a possible new source of statistical error that we call "propagation of outliers." This source of error is unusual in the sense that it is generated by the data processing itself and takes place after the data has been collected. We define and derive the influence function of robust multivariate location estimates under flexible contamination models and use it to investigate the effect of propagation of outliers. Furthermore, we show that standard high-breakdown affine equivariant estimators propagate outliers and therefore show poor breakdown behavior under componentwise contamination when the dimension $d$ is high.
