This work provides an integrated perspective on robustness in regression, which is incremental as it connects existing concepts without introducing new methods.

The paper examines the relationship between outlier-resistant robust estimation and robust optimization in regression, showing that these two robustness concepts exhibit a bias-variance trade-off, indicating they follow converse strategies.

This paper presents an integrated perspective on robustness in regression. Specifically, we examine the relationship between traditional outlier-resistant robust estimation and robust optimization, which focuses on parameter estimation resistant to imaginary dataset-perturbations. While both are commonly regarded as robust methods, these concepts demonstrate a bias-variance trade-off, indicating that they follow roughly converse strategies.
