Quantile regression can be used for predicting these extreme events, making it an important problem that has applications in many fields. Estimating high conditional quantiles is a difficult problem. Regular linear quantile regression uses an <i>L</i> <sub>1</sub> loss function [Koenker in Quantile regression, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2005], and the optimal solution of linear programming for estimating coefficients of regression. A problem with linear quantile regression is that the estimated curves for different quantiles can cross, a result that is logically inconsistent. To overcome the curves crossing problem, and to improve high quantile estimation in the nonlinear case, this paper proposes a nonparametric quantile regression method to estimate high conditional quantiles. A three-step computational algorithm is given, and the asymptotic properties of the proposed estimator are derived. Monte Carlo simulations show that the proposed method is more efficient than linear quantile regression method. Furthermore, this paper investigates COVID-19 and blood pressure real-world examples of extreme events by using the proposed method.</p>","PeriodicalId":45853,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistical Theory and Practice","volume":"17 2","pages":"32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10057703/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9794184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To account for autocorrelation among such longitudinally observed outcomes, a first-order Markov model for binary data is developed. Moreover, to account for the asynchronously observed time points, nonhomogeneous models for the transition probabilities are proposed. The transition probabilities are modeled using B-spline basis functions after suitable transformations. Additionally, if the underlying dose-response curve is assumed to be non-decreasing, our model allows for the estimation of any underlying non-decreasing curve based on suitably constructed prior distributions. We also extended our model to the mixed effect model to incorporate individual-specific random effects. Numerical comparisons with traditional models are provided based on simulated data sets, and also practical applications are illustrated using real data sets.</p>","PeriodicalId":45853,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistical Theory and Practice","volume":"17 1","pages":"9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9797254/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10480610","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
