One of my colleagues has a data set from a two-level nested design from which we would like to estimate variance components. But we'd like some idea of what the inevitable outliers are doing, so we were looking for something in R that uses robust (eg Huber) treatment and returns robust estimates of variance.
Nothing in my collection of R robust estimation packages (robust, robustbase and MASS being the obvious three) or on the Robust task view seems to cover this, though it's entirely possible I've missed something. Any pointers (to R packages or literature) gratefully accepted.
