fitHeavyTail: Mean and Covariance Matrix Estimation under Heavy Tails

Robust estimation methods for the mean vector and covariance matrix from data (possibly containing NAs) under multivariate heavy-tailed distributions such as angular Gaussian (via Tyler's method), Cauchy, and Student's t. Additionally, a factor model structure can be specified for the covariance matrix. The package is based on the papers: Sun, Babu, and Palomar (2014), Sun, Babu, and Palomar (2015), Liu and Rubin (1995), and Zhou, Liu, Kumar, and Palomar (2019).
