Smoothness selection for penalized quantile regression splines.
Modern data-rich analyses may call for fitting a large number of nonparametric quantile regressions. For example, growth charts may be constructed for each of a collection of variables, to identify those for which individuals with a disorder tend to fall in the tails of their age-specific distribution; such variables might serve as developmental biomarkers. When such a large set of analyses a...
متن کاملFlexible Bayesian quantile regression for independent and clustered data.
Quantile regression has emerged as a useful supplement to ordinary mean regression. Traditional frequentist quantile regression makes very minimal assumptions on the form of the error distribution and thus is able to accommodate nonnormal errors, which are common in many applications. However, inference for these models is challenging, particularly for clustered or censored data. A Bayesian app...
متن کاملNonparametric M-quantile Regression via Penalized Splines
Quantile regression investigates the conditional quantile functions of a response variables in terms of a set of covariates. Mquantile regression extends this idea by a “quantile-like” generalization of regression based on influence functions. In this work we extend it to nonparametric regression, in the sense that the M-quantile regression functions do not have to be assumed to be linear, but ...

1. Introduction: Recent work by Schennach(2005) has opened the way to a Bayesian treatment of quantile regression. Her method, called Bayesian exponentially tilted empirical likelihood (BETEL), provides a likelihood for data y subject only to a set of m moment conditions of the form Eg(y, θ) = 0 where θ is a k dimensional parameter of interest and k may be smaller, equal to or larger than m. Th...
متن کاملBayesian Spatial Quantile Regression.
Tropospheric ozone is one of the six criteria pollutants regulated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency under the Clean Air Act and has been linked with several adverse health effects, including mortality. Due to the strong dependence on weather conditions, ozone may be sensitive to climate change and there is great interest in studying the potential effect of climate change on ...
