Robust nonlinear principal components

All known approaches to nonlinear principal components are based on minimizing a quadratic loss, which makes them sensitive to data contamination. A predictive approach in which a spline curve is fit minimizing a residual M-scale is proposed for this problem. For a p-dimensional random sample xi (i=...
