Gradient descent algorithms for quantile regression with smooth approximation
Gradient based optimization methods often converge quickly to a local optimum. However, the check loss function used by quantile regression model is not everywhere differentiable, which prevents the gradient based optimization methods from being applicable. As such, this paper introduces a smooth function to approximate the check loss function so that the gradient based optimization methods cou...
متن کاملSubsampling Inference on Quantile Regression Processes
In program evaluation studies, important hypotheses concerning how a treatment or a social program affects the distribution of an outcome of interest can be tested using statistics derived from empirical conditional quantile processes. This paper develops simple and practical tests for verifying these hypotheses. The critical values for these tests are obtained by subsampling appropriately rece...
متن کاملLocal Composite Quantile Regression Smoothing for Harris Recurrent Markov Processes.
In this paper, we study the local polynomial composite quantile regression (CQR) smoothing method for the nonlinear and nonparametric models under the Harris recurrent Markov chain framework. The local polynomial CQR regression method is a robust alternative to the widely-used local polynomial method, and has been well studied in stationary time series. In this paper, we relax the stationarity ...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal quantile regression for detecting distributional changes in environmental processes.
Climate change may lead to changes in several aspects of the distribution of climate variables, including changes in the mean, increased variability, and severity of extreme events. In this paper, we propose using spatiotemporal quantile regression as a flexible and interpretable method for simultaneously detecting changes in several features of the distribution of climate variables. The spatio...
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...
