In non-parametric statistics, the Theil–Sen estimator is a method for robustly fitting a line to sample points in the plane (a form of simple linear regression) by choosing the median of the slopes of all lines through pairs of points. It has also been called Sen's slope estimator, slope selection, the single median method, the Kendall robust line-fit method, and the Kendall–Theil robust line.
