Smoothing quantile regressions

M Fernandes, E Guerre, E Horta - Journal of Business & Economic …, 2021 - Taylor & Francis
We propose to smooth the objective function, rather than only the indicator on the check
function, in a linear quantile regression context. Not only does the resulting smoothed …

Does the impact of carbon price determinants change with the different quantiles of carbon prices? Evidence from China ETS pilots

W Chu, S Chai, X Chen, M Du - Sustainability, 2020 - mdpi.com
Since carbon price volatility is critical to the risk management of the CO2 emissions trading
market, research has focused on energy prices and macroeconomic drivers which cause …

Neural networks for partially linear quantile regression

Q Zhong, JL Wang - Journal of Business & Economic Statistics, 2024 - Taylor & Francis
Deep learning has enjoyed tremendous success in a variety of applications but its
application to quantile regression remains scarce. A major advantage of the deep learning …

Robust uniform inference for quantile treatment effects in regression discontinuity designs

HD Chiang, YC Hsu, Y Sasaki - Journal of Econometrics, 2019 - Elsevier
The practical importance of inference with robustness against large bandwidths for causal
effects in regression discontinuity and kink designs is widely recognized. Existing robust …

Nonparametric inference of expectile-based value-at-risk for financial time series with application to risk assessment

F Zhang, Y Xu, C Fan - International Review of Financial Analysis, 2023 - Elsevier
Expectile-based value-at-risk (EVaR) is a more sensitive measure of the magnitude of
extreme losses compared to the conventional quantile-based value-at-risk (VaR). Besides …

Fractional order statistic approximation for nonparametric conditional quantile inference

M Goldman, DM Kaplan - Journal of Econometrics, 2017 - Elsevier
Using and extending fractional order statistic theory, we characterize the O (n− 1) coverage
probability error of the previously proposed (Hutson, 1999) confidence intervals for …

Nonparametric estimation of conditional quantile functions in the presence of irrelevant covariates

X Chen, D Li, Q Li, Z Li - Journal of Econometrics, 2019 - Elsevier
Allowing for the existence of irrelevant covariates, we study the problem of estimating a
conditional quantile function nonparametrically with mixed discrete and continuous data. We …

Non‐parametric inference on (conditional) quantile differences and interquantile ranges, using L‐statistics

M Goldman, DM Kaplan - The Econometrics Journal, 2018 - academic.oup.com
We provide novel, high‐order accurate methods for non‐parametric inference on quantile
differences between two populations in both unconditional and conditional settings. These …

Inference of local regression in the presence of nuisance parameters

KL Xu - Journal of Econometrics, 2020 - Elsevier
We consider inference based on local estimating equations in the presence of nuisance
parameters. The framework is useful for a number of applications including those in …
