On Bootstrap Inference for Quantile Regression Panel Data: A Monte Carlo Study
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper evaluates bootstrap inference methods for quantile regression panel data models. We propose to construct confidence intervals for the parameters of interest using percentile bootstrap with pairwise resampling. We study three different bootstrapping procedures. First, the bootstrap samples are constructed by resampling only from cross-sectional units with replacement. Second, the temporal resampling is performed from the time series. Finally, a more general resampling scheme, which considers sampling from both the cross-sectional and temporal dimensions, is introduced. The bootstrap algorithms are computationally attractive and easy to use in practice. We evaluate the performance of the bootstrap confidence interval by means of Monte Carlo simulations. The results show that the bootstrap methods have good finite sample performance for both location and location-scale models.

متن کاملQuantile Regression Estimation of Panel Duration Models with Censored Data∗
This paper studies the estimation of quantile regression panel duration models. We allow for the possibility of endogenous covariates and correlated individual effects in the quantile regression models. We propose a quantile regression approach for panel duration models under conditionally independent censoring. The procedure involves minimizing l1 convex objective functions and is motivated by...
متن کاملBayesian Nonparametric Modeling in Quantile Regression
We propose Bayesian nonparametric methodology for quantile regression modeling. In particular, we develop Dirichlet process mixture models for the error distribution in an additive quantile regression formulation. The proposed nonparametric prior probability models allow the data to drive the shape of the error density and thus provide more reliable predictive inference than models based on par...
متن کاملMeasurement Errors in Quantile Regression Models∗
This paper develops estimation and inference for quantile regression models with measurement errors. We propose an easily-implementable semiparametric two-step estimator when we have repeated measures for the covariates. Building on recent theory on Z-estimation with infinite-dimensional parameters, consistency and asymptotic normality of the proposed estimator are established. We also develop ...
