Abstract
This paper analyzes the co-fluctuation between a scalar response random variable and a curve regressor using quantile regression. We focus on the situation wherein the output variable is observed with random missing. For this incomplete functional data situation, we estimate the quantile regression by combining two principal nonparametric methods: the local linearity approach (LLA) and the kernel nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithm. We study the asymptotic properties of the constructed estimator by establishing, under general assumptions, uniform consistency over the number of neighborhoods. This asymptotic result provides good mathematical support for the selection of the optimal neighborhood. We examine the feasibility of the constructed estimator using artificially generated data. Moreover, we apply the quantile regression technique in food quality by predicting the riboflavin quantity in yogurt using spectrometry data.
