Quantile regression for additive coefficient models in high dimensions

In this paper, we consider quantile regression in additive coefficient models (ACM) with high dimensionality under a sparsity assumption and approximate the additive coefficient functions by B-spline expansion. First, we consider the oracle estimator for quantile ACM when the number of additive coef...

description In this paper, we consider quantile regression in additive coefficient models (ACM) with high dimensionality under a sparsity assumption and approximate the additive coefficient functions by B-spline expansion. First, we consider the oracle estimator for quantile ACM when the number of additive coefficient functions is diverging. Then we adopt the SCAD penalty and investigate the non-convex penalized estimator for model estimation and variable selection. Under some regularity conditions, we prove that the oracle estimator is a local solution of the SCAD penalized quantile regression problem. Simulation studies and an application to a genome-wide association study show that the proposed method yields good numerical results.
