[RsR] Citation of robust::lmRob?

2 messages · Ajay Shah, Kjell Konis

As advised by the gurus of this mailing list, I have been using
lmRob() in many situations. When writing a paper which reports results
using lmRob, I have two problems. First, I need to concretely describe
the method that is being used. Can someone provide a few paragraphs of
explanation of what is done? And, what should I be citing? It seems
that a great deal of effort has gone into building lmRob() and that
merits a citation rather than citing the materials mentioned in help(lmRob).

You can use citation("robust") to cite the package ?robust? in  
publications.

As for the description, you can probably find what you need in the  
'Overview of the Method' and 'Theoretical Details' sections of chapter  
2 in Robust.pdf. I'll send you a copy in a separate email (it's also  
available on R-Forge).
