In this paper, we consider the asymptotic properties of regression quantile estimators for the nonlinear regression model when dependent variables are subject to censoring time, and propose the sufficient conditions which ensure consistency and asymptotic normality for regression quantile estimators in censored nonlinear regression model. Also, we drive the asymptotic relative efficiency of the censored regression model with respect to the ordinary regression model.

Quantile regression provides a more complete statistical analysis of the stochastic relationships among random variables. Sometimes quantile functions estimated at different orders can cross each other. We propose a new non-crossing quantile regression method applying support vector median regression to restricted regression quantile, restricted support vector quantile regression. The proposed method provides a satisfying solution to estimating non-crossing quantile functions when multiple quantiles for high dimensional data are needed. We also present the model selection method that employs cross validation techniques for choosing the parameters which aect the performance of the proposed method. One real example and a simulated example are provided to show the usefulness of the proposed method.

Quantile regression proposed by Koenker and Bassett (1978) is a statistical technique that estimates conditional quantiles. The advantage of using quantile regression is the robustness in response to large outliers compared to ordinary least squares(OLS) regression. A regression tree approach has been applied to OLS problems to fit flexible models. Loh (2002) proposed the GUIDE algorithm that has a negligible selection bias and relatively low computational cost. Quantile regression can be regarded as an analogue of OLS, therefore it can also be applied to GUIDE regression tree method. Chaudhuri and Loh (2002) proposed a nonparametric quantile regression method that blends key features of piecewise polynomial quantile regression and tree-structured regression based on adaptive recursive partitioning. Lee and Lee (2006) investigated wage determinants in the Korean labor market using the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study(KLIPS). Following Lee and Lee, we fit three kinds of quantile regression tree models to KLIPS data with respect to the quantiles, 0.05, 0.2, 0.5, 0.8, and 0.95. Among the three models, multiple linear piecewise quantile regression model forms the shortest tree structure, while the piecewise constant quantile regression model has a deeper tree structure with more terminal nodes in general. Age, gender, marriage status, and education seem to be the determinants of the wage level throughout the quantiles; in addition, education experience appears as the important determinant of the wage level in the highly paid group.

In this paper, we deal with the asymptotic properties of the regression quantile estimators in the nonlinear time series regression model. For the sinusodial model which frequently appears fer a time series analysis, we study the strong consistency and asymptotic normality of regression quantile ostinators.

Quantile regression models with covariate measurement errors have received a great deal of attention in both the theoretical and the applied statistical literature. A lot of effort has been devoted to develop effective estimation methods for such quantile regression models. In this paper we propose the partially linear support vector orthogonal quantile regression model in the presence of covariate measurement errors. We also provide a generalized approximate cross-validation method for choosing the hyperparameters and the ratios of the error variances which affect the performance of the proposed model. The proposed model is evaluated through simulations.

In this paper, we develop a new statistical model to forecast the PM_2.5 level in Seoul, South Korea. The proposed model is based on the extreme quantile regression model with lasso penalty. Various meteorological variables and air pollution variables are considered as predictors in the regression model, and the lasso quantile regression performs variable selection and solves the multicollinearity problem. The final prediction model is obtained by combining various extreme lasso quantile regression estimators and we construct a binary classifier based on the model. Prediction performance is evaluated through the statistical measures of the performance of a binary classification test. We observe that the proposed method works better compared to the other classification methods, and predicts 'very bad' cases of the PM_2.5 level well.

Quantile regression models with errors in variables have received a great deal of attention in the social and natural sciences. Some eorts have been devoted to develop eective estimation methods for such quantile regression models. In this paper we propose an orthogonal distance quantile regression model that eectively considers the errors on both input and response variables. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated through simulation studies.

고객만족도조사에서 가중치를 어떠한 방법으로 산정할 것인지는 여러 가지 논점이 제기되고 있는 상황이다. 이에 본 연구는 최소제곱 회귀모형과 분위회귀모형의 회귀계수를 비교하여 분위별 만족도의 가중치가 어떻게 다른지 살펴보고, 분위별 회귀계수의 영향력 차이를 파악하기 위해 부트스트랩 검증을 실시하였다. 공개 소프트웨어인 R(Quantreg 패키지)을 이용하여 분석한 결과, 분위에 따라 만족도 요인의 영향력 크기는 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났고, 각 분위별 회귀계수는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 평균적인 집단의 특성을 제시하는 최소제곱 회귀모형보다 만족수준에 따른 고객집단 별로 만족요인의 영향력을 제시하는 분위회귀모형을 이용하는 것이 고객만족도를 위한 계량적 융합정책 설계에 기여를 할 것이다.

In the case of multiple survival times which might be censored at each covariate vector, we study the regression quantile estimations in this paper. The estimations are based on the empirical distribution functions of the censored times and the sample quantiles of the observed survival times at each covariate vector and the weighted least square method is applied for the estimation of the regression quantile. The estimators are shown to be asymptotically normally distributed under some regularity conditions.

본 연구는 대한민국 육군이 선도적으로 도입하고자 노력하고 있는 AI 면접체계의 자료를 통합 비교차 다중 분위수 회귀나무 모형(unified non-crossing multiple quantile tree; UNQRT)을 활용하여 분석한 것이다. 분위수 회귀가 일반적인 선형회귀에 비하여 많은 장점을 가지지만, 선형성 가정은 여전히 많은 현실 문제해결에 있어 지나치게 강한 가정이다. 선형성을 완화한 모형의 하나인 기존 나무모형 기반의 분위수 회귀는 추정된 분위수 함수별로 교차하는 문제와 분위수별로 나무모형을 제시하여 해석력을 저하시키는 문제가 있다. 통합 비교차 다중 분위수회귀나무 모형은 비교차 제약식을 부여한 상태로 다중 분위수 함수를 동시에 추정함으로서 분위수 함수의 교차 문제를 해결하며, 극단 분위수에서 안정된 결과를 기대할 수 있고, 하나의 통합된 나무모형을 제시하여 우수한 해석력이 있다. 본 연구에서는 통합 비교차 다중 분위수회귀나무 모형을 활용하여 육군 AI 면접체계의 결과와 기존 인사자료간 관계를 충분히 탐색하여 의미있는 다양한 결과를 도출하였다.
