Resumen	Bayesian Robust Regression replaces the Gaussian error assumption of ordinary linear regression with a heavy-tailed distribution — most commonly the Student-t — and estimates all parameters in a Bayesian framework. The heavier tails give outliers less influence on the fitted line, yielding stable coefficient estimates and honest uncertainty intervals even when the data contain unusual observations.	Robust regression estimates the linear relationship between a continuous outcome and predictors while sharply reducing the influence of outliers and leverage points. Unlike OLS, which is highly sensitive to extreme observations, robust methods assign down-weighted influence to atypical data points, producing coefficient estimates that remain stable even when a fraction of the data is contaminated or non-normally distributed.
