ENGLISH ABSTRACT: It is well known that ordinary least squares (OLS) procedures are sensitive to deviations from
the classical Gaussian assumptions (outliers) as well as data aberrations in the design space.

A framework for estimating risk
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2008-03)
We consider the problem of model assessment by risk estimation. Various
approaches to risk estimation are considered in a uni ed framework. This a discussion of various complexity dimensions and approaches to obtaining
bounds ...
