The coordinatewise median suffers a contamination error of order with constant probability. In contrast, the Tukey median under an isotropic Gaussian model satisfies a high-probability Euclidean error bound of orderwith probability at least , up to universal constants. Its contamination term is dimension-free. Thus coordinatewise estimation loses a factor in its dependence on adversarial contamination.
