GR2T vs L2E with Nuisance Scale
We compare the objective functions used by GR2T [1] and the L2E estimator [2] that have both been proposed for robust parameter estimation. We show their similarity when estimating location parameters. Of particular interest is their ability for dealing with the scale parameter that is often unknown and acts as a nuisance parameter. Both techniques are tested experimentally for regression (e.g. to find patterns such as line and circle in noisy datasets) and for registration between datasets.
