Abstract
A new estimation procedure is proposed for the single-index quantile regression model. Compared to existing work, this approach is non-iterative and hence, computationally efficient. The proposed method not only estimates the index parameter and the link function but also selects variables simultaneously. The performance of the variable selection is enhanced by a fully adaptive penalty function motivated by the sliced inverse regression technique. Finite sample performance is studied through a simulation study that compares the proposed method with existing work under several criteria. A data analysis is given that highlights the usefulness of the proposed methodology.
