Abstract

We investigate a new kernel-weighted likelihood smoothing quantile regression method. The likelihood is based on a normal scale-mixture representation of asymmetric Laplace distribution (ALD). This approach enjoys the same good design adaptation as the local quantile regression ( Spokoiny et al., 2013 , Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference, 143, 1109–1129), particularly for smoothing extreme quantile curves, and ensures non-crossing quantile curves for any given sample. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated via extensive Monte Carlo simulation studies and one real data analysis.
