Abstract

In this report the identification problem of laser and acoustic sounding of the atmosphere is considered in the presence of outliers in experimental data. The efficiency of estimates of the regression by the weighed method of maximum likelihood is investigated. Expressions for the efficiency of estimates are derived. It is demonstrated that the estimates of the regression by the weighed maximum likelihood method are more efficient in comparison with a number of well-known robust estimates for the examined outlier distributions, both symmetric and asymmetric.
