초록

분위수 회귀는 반응변수의 조건부 분위수 함수를 추정함으로써 반응변수와 예측변수의 관계에 대한 포괄적인 정보를 제공한다. 그러나 여러 개의 분위수 함수를 개별적으로 추정하게 되면 이들이 서로 교차할 가능성이 있으며, 이러한 분위수 함수의 교차(quantile crossing) 현상 분위수의 이론적 기본 특성에 위배된다. 본 논문에서는 다중 비교차 분위수 함수의 추정을 위해 커널 계수에 제약식을 부여하는 순차적 추정법을 제안하였으며, 모의실험을 통해 제안한 방법론의 효율적인 성능과 유용성을 확인하였다.

Quantile regression can estimate multiple conditional quantile functions of the response, and as a result, it provide comprehensive information of the relationship between the response and the predictors. However, when estimating several conditional quantile functions separately, two or more estimated quantile functions may cross or overlap and consequently violate the basic properties of quantiles. In this paper, we propose a new stepwise method to estimate multiple non-crossing quantile functions using constraints on the kernel coefficients. A simulation study are presented to demonstrate satisfactory performance of the proposed method.
