Researchers have introduced HOMER (Huber-of-Means for Efficient and Robust Estimation), a novel statistical method designed to improve estimation in Hilbert spaces, particularly in the presence of heavy tails. HOMER aggregates block means using a radial Huber center, offering a balance between the robustness of medians and the efficiency of empirical means. Theoretical analysis and simulations suggest that HOMER provides stable results even when some block summaries are compromised, and it closely approaches the efficiency of the empirical mean on clean data.
