Cross posting is sociopathic. The Oja median _is_ robust in several reasonable senses, but admittedly not from a breakdown perspective. There are several other options: for a good review see, e.g. Multivariate Median, A. Niinimaa and H. Oja Encyclopedia of Statistical Sciences url:www.eco

i have tried the code. The first function (which computes the Oja median) has a slight problem: If you try four points that create a square centred at (2,2) oja.median(cbind(c(1,3,1,3),c(1,1,3,3))) gives (-2,-2) instead of (2,2). Probably just a sign switch somewhere. The second function
