概要	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 Theil-Sen estimator is a robust linear regression method that estimates the slope as the median of the slopes computed over all pairs of data points. Introduced by Henri Theil in 1950 and extended by P. K. Sen in 1968, it tolerates outliers in the response with a breakdown point of about 29%.
