Detailed Description

View in nbviewer Open in SWAN
This tutorial shows how the least trimmed squares regression, included in the TLinearFitter class, can be used for fitting in cases when the data contains outliers.

Here the fitting is done via the TGraph::Fit function with option "rob": If you want to use the linear fitter directly for computing the robust fitting coefficients, just use the TLinearFitter::EvalRobust function instead of TLinearFitter::Eval

Ordinary least squares:
****************************************
Minimizer is Linear / Migrad
Chi2 = 606758
NDf = 246
p0 = 15.724 +/- 0.0887641
p1 = -0.835912 +/- 0.14096
p2 = -3.40616 +/- 0.0607296
p3 = 4.82569 +/- 0.0602628
Resistant Least trimmed squares fit:
****************************************
Minimizer is Linear / Robust (h=0.75)
Chi2 = 634792
NDf = 246
p0 = 1.00953
p1 = 1.71148
p2 = 2.97937
p3 = 4.07752

//and the coefficients are far from the real ones
printf("Resistant Least trimmed squares fit:\n");
//Now let's try the resistant regression
//The option "rob=0.75" means that we want to use robust fitting and
//we know that at least 75% of data is good points (at least 50% of points
//should be good to use this algorithm). If you don't specify any number
//and just use "rob" for the option, default value of (npoints+nparameters+1)/2
//will be taken
