We consider the problem of estimating the matching map between two sets of feature-vectors observed in a noisy environment and contaminated by outliers. It was already known in the literature that in the outlier-free setting, the least sum of squares (LSS) and the least sum of logarithms (LSL) are both minimax-rate-optimal. It has been recently proved that the optimality properties of the LSS continue to hold in the case the data sets contain outliers. In this work, we show that the same is true for the LSL as well. Therefore, LSL has the same desirable properties as the LSS, and, in addition, it is minimax-rate-optimal in the outlier-free setting with heteroscedastic noise.
