4. ### Computational Statistics: Variance reduction

Hi. In this exercise, I should do the following subquestions for θ=P(X+Y≥15) where X∼Exp(0.5) and Y∼Exp(0.25) both X and Y are independent. Implement the following estimators for θ: (i) The raw simulation estimator. (ii) The antithetic estimator. But the exercise here restrict the methods...

17. ### How to calculate Huber Estimator

Hi, I would like to understand how to compute the Huber estimator. As I read, the objective function of Huber estimator is minimizing $\rho (x_i - \theta)$, where the $\rho (t) = 1/2 t^2$ when $|t| < k$ and $\rho (t) = k|t| - 1/2 k^2$ when $|t| > k$. Anyone know how to compute this...
