β¦ Synopsis
Regression quantiles can be used as prediction intervals for the response variable. But such applications are often hampered by the problem of quantile crossing in finite sample cases. This article examines the efficiency properties of restricted regression quantiles that are proposed by X. He (1997, Amer. Statist. 51, 186 192) to overcome the crossing problem of the usual regression quantiles of R. Koenker and G. Bassett (1978, Econometrica 46, 33 50) for linear models. An example using esterase assay data is presented to illustrate the use of restricted regression quantiles in constructing calibration intervals.

The object of this paper is to demonstrate how the LAD estimation method for the censored regression model can be extended to more general quantiles. In this paper. the fo:m of the conditional quantiles for the censored regression models is heuristically derived and discussed. The resulting estimato
## Abstract This paper extends results regarding smoothed median binary regression to general smoothed binary quantile regression, discusses the interpretation of the resulting estimators under alternative assumptions, and shows how they may be used to obtain semiparametric estimates of counterfact
## Abstract This paper is a study of the application of Bayesian exponentially tilted empirical likelihood to inference about quantile regressions. In the case of simple quantiles we show the exact form for the likelihood implied by this method and compare it with the Bayesian bootstrap and with Je
