Σύνοψη	Robust Correspondence Analysis (RCA) extends classical correspondence analysis to contingency tables that contain outlying rows or columns. By replacing the standard singular value decomposition with a robust alternative, RCA produces biplots and coordinate maps that accurately reflect the dominant association structure even when atypical cells or categories exert undue influence on the standard solution.	Robust multidimensional scaling recovers a low-dimensional spatial map from a matrix of pairwise dissimilarities while resisting distortion caused by outlying or erroneous proximity values. By replacing squared-error loss with a robust loss function or down-weighting suspect pairs, it produces a configuration that faithfully represents the bulk of the data even when some distances are grossly atypical.
