Title: Variable Selection for Quantile Regression Under General Censoring Scheme
Author(s): Lan Wang*
Companies: University of Minnesota
Keywords: quantile regression ; censoring ; variable selection
Abstract:

Censored quantile regression offers a valuable supplement to Cox proportional hazards model for survival analysis. Existing work in the literature on variable selection for censored quantile regression usually work with only a small number of covariates and requires stringent assumptions, such as unconditional independence of the survival time and or the independence of the survival time and the random errors. We provide a new penalized censored quantile regression framework under general censoring scheme that overcomes the aforementioned drawback. Theoretical and numerical results will be reported.
