Quantile and Probability Curves without Crossing
This paper proposes a method to address the longstanding problem of lack of monotonicity in estimation of conditional and structural quantile functions, also known as the quantile crossing problem. The method consists in sorting or monotone rearranging the original estimated non-monotone curve into a monotone rearranged curve. We show that the rearranged curve is closer to the true quantile cur...
متن کاملQuantile Probability and Statistical Data Modeling
Quantile and conditional quantile statistical thinking, as I have innovated it in my research since 1976, is outlined in this comprehensive survey and introductory course in quantile data analysis. We propose that a (grand) unification of the theory and practice of statistical methods of data modeling may be possible by a quantile perspective. Our broad range of topics of univariate and bivaria...
متن کاملThe Multiple Quantile Graphical Model
We introduce the Multiple Quantile Graphical Model (MQGM), which extends the neighborhood selection approach of Meinshausen and Bühlmann for learning sparse graphical models. The latter is defined by the basic subproblem of modeling the conditional mean of one variable as a sparse function of all others. Our approach models a set of conditional quantiles of one variable as a sparse function of ...
متن کاملBoosted Classification Trees and Class Probability/Quantile Estimation
The standard by which binary classifiers are usually judged, misclassification error, assumes equal costs of misclassifying the two classes or, equivalently, classifying at the 1/2 quantile of the conditional class probability function P[y = 1|x]. Boosted classification trees are known to perform quite well for such problems. In this article we consider the use of standard, off-the-shelf boosti...
متن کاملQuantile and probability-level criteria for nonlinear experimental design
We consider optimal experimental design for parameter estimation in nonlinear situations where the optimal experiment depends on the value of the parameters to be estimated. Setting a prior distribution for these parameters, we construct criteria based on quantiles and probability levels of classical design criteria and show how their derivatives can easily be approximated, so that classical al...
