Conditioning your quantile function
Random sampling via a quantile function Q(u) is a popular technique, but two very common sources of numerical instability are often overlooked: (i) quantile functions tend to be ill-conditioned when u → 1 and (ii) feeding them uniformly spaced u can make them ill-conditioned as u → 0. These flaws undermine the tails of Q(u)’s distribution, and both flaws are present in the polar method for norm...
متن کاملUnderstanding Dependent Competing Risks: A Simulation Study to Illustrate the Relationship Between Cause-Specific Hazard and Marginal Hazard
In the analysis of competing risk data, the observed effect of a covariate can be obtained via a Fine and Gray sub-distribution hazard ratio. Sometimes, it is also desirable to obtain the virtual effect of a covariate as if the competing risks were non-existent. Under the latent failure time scenario, when the event of interest and the competing risk event are independent, the cause-specific ha...
متن کاملMultivariate Quantile Function Models
Multivariate quantiles have been defined by a number of researchers and can be estimated by different methods. However, little work can be found in the literature about Bayesian estimation of joint quantiles of multivariate random variables. In this paper we present a multivariate quantile function model and propose a Bayesian method to estimate the model parameters. The methodology developed h...
متن کاملFirm Specific Risk and Return: Quantile Regression Application
The present study aims at investigating the relationship between firm specific risk and stock return using cross-sectional quantile regression. In order to study the power of firm specific risk in explaining cross-sectional return, a combination of Fama-Macbeth (1973) model and quantile regression is used. To this aim, a sample of 270 firms listed in Tehran Stock Exchange during 1999-2010 was i...
متن کاملA Note on the Smooth Estimator of the Quantile Function with Left-Truncated Data
This note focuses on estimating the quantile function based on the kernel smooth estimator under a truncated dependent model. The Bahadurtype representation of the kernel smooth estimator is established, and from the Bahadur representation it can be seen that this estimator is strongly consistent.
