An Alternative Method of Regression: Robust Modified Anti-Hebbian Learning

A linear neural unit with a modified anti-Hebbian learning rule has been shown to be able to optimally fit curves, surfaces, and hypersurfaces by adaptively extracting the minor component of the input data set. In this paper, we study how to use the robust version of this neural fitting method for linear regression analysis. Furthermore, we compare this method with other methods when data set is contaminated by outliers.
