Taupo, Biometrics 2009 Introduction to Quantile Regression David Baird VSN NZ, 40 McMahon Drive, Christchurch, New Zealand

Taupo, Biometrics 2009 Reasons to use quantiles rather than means Analysis of distribution rather than average Robustness Skewed data Interested in representative value Interested in tails of distribution Unequal variation of samples E.g. Income distribution is highly skewed so median relates more to typical person that mean.

Taupo, Biometrics 2009 Quantiles Cumulative Distribution Function Quantile Function Discrete step function

Taupo, Biometrics 2009 Optimality Criteria Linear absolute loss Mean optimizes Quantile τ optimizes I = 0,1 indicator function

Taupo, Biometrics 2009 Regression Quantile Optimize Solution found by Simplex algorithm Add slack variables split e i into positive and negative residuals Solution at vertex of feasible region May be non-unique solution (along edge) - so solution passes through n data points

Taupo, Biometrics 2009 Variation of Parameter with Quantile

Taupo, Biometrics 2009 Estimation of Confidence Intervals Asymptotic approximation of variation Bootstrapping Novel approach to bootstrapping by reweighting rather than resampling W i ~ Exponential(1) Resampling is a discrete approximation of exponential weighting Avoids changing design points so faster and identical quantiles produced
