Quantile regression methods for reference growth charts.
Estimation of reference growth curves for children's height and weight has traditionally relied on normal theory to construct families of quantile curves based on samples from the reference population. Age-specific parametric transformation has been used to significantly broaden the applicability of these normal theory methods. Non-parametric quantile regression methods offer a complementary st...
متن کاملGrowth Charts of Body Mass Index (BMI) With Quantile Regression
Growth charts of body mass index (BMI) are constructed from the recent four-year national crosssectional survey data (1999−2002) using parametric quantile regression methods, which are implemented with a newly developed SAS procedure (http://www.sas.com/statistics) and SAS macros.
متن کاملA Quantile Regression Approach to Firm Growth
This paper explores the firm growth rate distribution in a Gibrat's Law context. The aim is to provide an empirical exploration of the determinants of firm growth. The work is novel in two respects. First, rather than limiting the analysis to focus on the conditional mean growth level, we investigate the complete shape of the distribution. Second, we show that the differences in the firm growth...
متن کاملEXTREMAL QUANTILE REGRESSION 3 quantile regression
Quantile regression is an important tool for estimation of conditional quantiles of a response Y given a vector of covariates X. It can be used to measure the effect of covariates not only in the center of a distribution, but also in the upper and lower tails. This paper develops a theory of quantile regression in the tails. Specifically , it obtains the large sample properties of extremal (ext...
متن کاملQuantile regression with group lasso for classification
Applications of regression models for binary response are very common and models specific to these problems are widely used. Quantile regression for binary response data has recently attracted attention and regularized quantile regression methods have been proposed for high dimensional problems. When the predictors have a natural group structure, such as in the case of categorical predictors co...
