+Computes the optimally robust estimator for location with scale specified,
+scale with location specified, or both if neither is specified. The computation
+uses a k-step construction with an appropriate initial estimate for location
+or scale or location and scale, respectively. Valid candidates are e.g. 
+median and/or MAD (default) as well as Kolmogorov(-Smirnov) or von Mises minimum 
+distance estimators; cf. Rieder (1994) and Kohl (2005).
+</p>
+<p>
+If the amount of gross errors (contamination) is known, it can be 
+specified by <code>eps</code>. The radius of the corresponding infinitesimal 
+contamination neighborhood is obtained by multiplying <code>eps</code> 
+by the square root of the sample size.

+<h3>Details</h3>
+
+<p>
+Computes the optimally robust estimator for location with scale specified,
+scale with location specified, or both if neither is specified. The computation
+uses a k-step construction with an appropriate initial estimate for location
+or scale or location and scale, respectively. Valid candidates are e.g. 
+median and/or MAD (default) as well as Kolmogorov(-Smirnov) or von Mises minimum 
+distance estimators; cf. Rieder (1994) and Kohl (2005).
+</p>
+<p>
+These functions are optimized for the situation where one has a matrix 
+and wants to compute the optimally robust estimator for every row, 
+respectively column of this matrix. In particular, the amount of cross
+errors is assumed to be constant for all rows, respectively columns.
+</p>
+<p>
+If the amount of gross errors (contamination) is known, it can be 
+specified by <code>eps</code>. The radius of the corresponding infinitesimal 
+contamination neighborhood is obtained by multiplying <code>eps</code> 
+by the square root of the sample size. 
+</p>
+<p>
+If the amount of gross errors (contamination) is unknown, try to find a 
+rough estimate for the amount of gross errors, such that it lies 
+between <code>eps.lower</code> and <code>eps.upper</code>.
+</p>
+<p>
+In case <code>eps.lower</code> is specified and <code>eps.upper</code> is missing, 
+<code>eps.upper</code> is set to 0.5. In case <code>eps.upper</code> is specified and
+<code>eps.lower</code> is missing, <code>eps.lower</code> is set to 0.
+</p>
+<p>
+If neither <code>eps</code> nor <code>eps.lower</code> and/or <code>eps.upper</code> is 
+specified, <code>eps.lower</code> and <code>eps.upper</code> are set to 0 and 0.5, 
+respectively.
+</p>
+<p>
+If <code>eps</code> is missing, the radius-minimax estimator in sense of 
+Rieder et al. (2001), respectively Section 2.2 of Kohl (2005) is returned.
+</p>
+<p>
+In case of location, respectively scale one additionally has to specify
+<code>sd</code>, respectively <code>mean</code> where <code>sd</code> and <code>mean</code> can
+be a single number, i.e., identical for all rows, respectively columns,
+or a vector, i.e., different for all rows, respectively columns.
