Using Quantile Regression for Duration Analysis
Quantile regression methods are emerging as a popular technique in econometrics and biometrics for exploring the distribution of duration data. This paper discusses quantile regression for duration analysis allowing for a flexible specification of the functional relationship and of the error distribution. Censored quantile regression address the issue of right censoring of the response variable...
متن کاملQuantile Regression for Longitudinal Data
The penalized least squares interpretation of the classical random effects estimator suggests a possible way forward for quantile regression models with a large number of “fixed effects”. The introduction of a large number of individual fixed effects can significantly inflate the variability of estimates of other covariate effects. Regularization, or shrinkage of these individual effects toward...
متن کاملQuantile regression with aggregated data
Analyses using aggregated data may bias inference. In this work we show how to avoid or at least reduce this bias when estimating quantile regressions using aggregated information. This is possible by considering the unconditional quantile regression recently introduced by Firpo et al (2009) and using a specific strategy to aggregate the data.
متن کاملQuantile regression with panel data
We propose a generalization of the linear quantile regression model to accommodate possibilities afforded by panel data. Specifically, we extend the correlated random coefficients representation of linear quantile regression (e.g., Koenker, 2005; Section 2.6). We show that panel data allows the econometrician to (i) introduce dependence between the regressors and the random coefficients and (ii...
متن کاملQuantile Regression using Metaheuristic Algorithms
This paper demonstrates that metaheuristic algorithms can provide a useful general framework for estimating both linear and nonlinear econometric models. Two metaheuristic algorithms—firefly and accelerated particle swarm optimization—are employed in the context of several quantile regression models. The algorithms are stable and robust to the choice of starting values and the presence of vario...
