Résumé	The W-estimator is a family of robust M-estimator variants for linear regression that use the Tukey bisquare and Welsch weight functions, introduced in the line of work going back to Beaton and Tukey (1974). Because its weights fall rapidly toward zero as a residual grows, it resists outliers more strongly than the Huber M-estimator.	Ordinary Least Squares is the classical linear regression method that explains a continuous outcome as a linear combination of predictors. It estimates the coefficients by minimising the sum of squared residuals, and under the Gauss-Markov assumptions these estimates are the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE).	The S-estimator is a robust linear-regression method, introduced by Rousseeuw and Yohai in 1984, that estimates the coefficients by minimising a robust M-estimate of the residual scale rather than the variance of the residuals. By driving down a bounded measure of residual spread it can attain a breakdown point of up to 50%, so it stays reliable even when a large share of the data are outliers, and it provides the first stage of the well-known MM-estimator.
