Abstract: Analysis of three-way data is becoming ever more prevalent in the literature, especially in the area of clustering and classification. Real data, including real three-way data, are often contaminated by potential outlying observations. Their detection, as well as the development of robust models insensitive to their presence, is particularly important for this type of data because of the practical issues concerning their effective visualization. Herein, the contaminated matrix variate normal distribution is discussed and then utilized in the mixture model paradigm for clustering. One key advantage of the proposed model is the ability to automatically detect potential outlying matrices by computing their extit{a posteriori} probability to be a "good" or "bad" point. Such detection is currently unavailable using existing matrix variate methods. An expectation conditional maximization algorithm is used for parameter estimation, and both simulated and real data are used for illustration.
