Heteroscedastic nonlinear regression by using Tanh Psi function

This article is concerned with the extension of heteroscedastic nonlinear regression estimation by using Tanh Psi function. The robustness properties of the Tanh's and Hampel's Weighted MM (WMM) estimators were investi­gated. In our simulation study, it has been shown that the biases and R...
