> Linear least square estimates assume the error has normal distribution and 
> can behave badly when the errors are heavy-tailed. In practical we get 
> various types of data. We need to include Robust Regression to employ a 
> fitting criterion that is not as vulnerable as least square.
> The Tukey bisquare weight function, also referred to as the biweight 
> function, produces an M-estimator that is more resistant to regression 
> outliers than the Huber M-estimator (Andersen 2008: 19).
