[R] prediction intervals for robust regression

2015-02-11 Thread Burns, Jonathan (NONUS)
I have created robust regression models using least trimmed squares and MM-regression (using the R package robustbase). I am now looking to create prediction intervals for the predicted results. While I have seen some discussion in the literature about confidence intervals on the estimates for
