Under some regularity conditions, the Huber-Dutter estimators of β 0 and σ are shown to be asymptotically normal with the rate of convergence n ?1/2 and the B-spline Huber-Dutter estimator of g 0 achieves the optimal rate of convergence in nonparametric regression. A simulation study and two examples demonstrate that the Huber-Dutter estimator of β 0 is competitive with its M-estimator without scale parameter and the ordinary least square estimator.展开更多
