Robust regression tools are commonly used to develop regression-type ratio estimators with traditional measures of location whenever data are contaminated with outliers. Recently, the researchers extended this idea and developed regression-type ratio estimators through robust minimum covariance determinant (MCD) estimation. In this study, the quantile regression with MCD-based measures of location is utilized and a class of quantile regression-type mean estimators is proposed. The mean squared errors (MSEs) of the proposed estimators are also obtained. The proposed estimators are compared with the reviewed class of estimators through a simulation study. We also incorporated two real-life applications. To assess the presence of outliers in these real-life applications, the Dixon chi-squared test is used. It is found that the quantile regression estimators are performing better as compared to some existing estimators.

The proposal ofMestimators for regression (Huber, 1973) and the development of an algorithm for its computation (Dutter, 1977) has lead to an increased activity for further research in this area. New regression estimators were introduced that combine a high level of robustness with high efficiency. Also fast algorithms have been developed and implemented in several software packages. We provide a review of the most important methods, and compare the performance of the algorithms implemented in R .
