Robustness weights in sparseS() #29

Closed aalfons closed 3 years ago

aalfons commented 9 years ago

Current implementation of weights in FAST-S algorithm is only valid for lambda different from 0.

For a fixed lambda grid, we need to check for special case lambda = 0 and compute weights as for the unpenalized S-estimator in that case.

When lambda is selected on each weighted subset, we have to exclude lambda = 0 in order to select lambda only from values where the weights are appropriate.

Implementation should also be correct for lambda equal to zero. See derivations in email.

sparseS() will no longer be developed further. Users can use package pense instead.
