Abstract:
|
It is often desirable to construct stable confidence intervals and robust tests based on the quantile regression. In this paper, considering high-dimensional sparse linear model, we propose a bias-corrected estimator for the conditional quantile of the response variable for any loading vector. We establish asymptotic normality of the proposed estimator and construct a confidence interval for the conditional quantile. The validity of our method does not require sparsity conditions on either the loading vector or the precision matrix of the random design. We demonstrate the proposed method via simulation studies.
