We used the weighted maximum likelihood estimators which are regarded as Mallows-type estimators. We perform a Monte Carlo simulation study to assess the performance of a suggested estimator compared to the maximum likelihood estimator and some robust methods. The result shows that, in general, all robust methods in this paper perform better than the classical maximum likelihood estimators when the model contains outliers. The proposed estimators showed the best performance compared to other robust estimators. %K Poisson Regression Model %K Maximum Likelihood Estimator %K Robust Estimation %K Contaminated Model %K Weighted Maximum Likelihood Estimator %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=123463
