Robust Multinomial Logistic Regression
Robust multinomial logistic regression extends the standard multinomial logit model to handle outliers, influential observations, and mild misspecification of the response distribution. It replaces the conventional maximum likelihood score equations with bounded influence functions (M-estimation) or pairs maximum likelihood with sandwich variance estimators, so that a small fraction of anomalous cases cannot distort the estimated log-odds ratios across outcome categories.

Curated claims
Claims persisted in the evidence ledger, each with its own assessment.
This view does not invent a claim assessment when the ledger has none.
