Abstract

In this paper, the constrained M-estimation of the regression coefficients and scatter parameters in a general multivariate linear regression model is considered. Since the constrained M-estimation is not easy to compute, an up-dating recursion procedure is proposed to simplify the computation of the estimators when a new observation is obtained. We show that, under mild conditions, the recursion estimates are strongly consistent. In addition, the asymptotic normality of the recursive constrained M-estimators of regression coefficients is established. A Monte Carlo simulation study of the recursion estimates is also provided. Besides, robustness and asymptotic behavior of constrained M-estimators are briefly discussed.
