Quantile Regression Using the SAS QUANTREG Procedure - Continuing Education - CTW
The ASA
Instructor(s): Colin Chen, SAS Institute, Inc.
This workshop will introduce the new SAS QUANTREG procedure, which computes conditional quantile functions and conducts statistical inference on regression parameters. Participants will learn to explore the heterogeneity of both cross-sectional and longitudinal data and interpret quantile effects and quantile processes. Basic and advanced features of the procedure will be presented with examples, including the construction of growth charts for medical measurements. Basic knowledge of linear regression models is required.
