Abstract:
      In this paper the binary regression model, in which the response Y is binary, i.e. Y takes the value 0 or 1 only, is considered. The conditional probability P{Y=1|X=x} is assumed to be of the form G(a0+a1x), where x is the measurement of the factor, a= (a0,a1)′ is the vector of the unknown parameter being estimated and G(a) = (1+ea)-1. The measurement x is assu-med to be contaminated when the value of x is out of certain limit. M-estimation is employed to estimate the unknown a of the model. In this paper, the consistent M-estimation is proved to be asymptotically normal and the optimal M-equation is obtained. Finally, a computation method is introduced to solve the M-equation and to get the optimal solution.
