Package: robscale
Title: Fast Robust Estimation in Very Small Samples
Version: 0.1.1
Description: High-performance C++ implementation (via 'Rcpp') of the robust location and scale M-estimators described in Rousseeuw & Verboven (2002) <doi:10.1016/S0167-9473(02)00078-6> for very small samples. Provides numerically identical results to the 'revss' package with significantly improved performance through sorting networks and compiled iteration loops.
