Do maternal health problems influence child's worrying status? Evidence from the British Cohort Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Conventional methods apply symmetric prior distributions such as a normal distribution or a Laplace distribution for regression coefficients, which may be suitable for median regression and exhibit no robustness to outliers. This work develops a quantile

The Asymmetric Laplace Gaussian (ALG) Distribution as the Descriptive Model for the Internal Proactive Inhibition in the Standard Stop Signal Task

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
Measurements of response inhibition components of reactive inhibition and proactive inhibition within the stop-signal paradigm have been of particular interest to researchers since the 1980s.

Shaky Student Growth? A Comparison of Robust Bayesian Learning Progress Estimation Methods

open access: yesJournal of Intelligence, 2022
Monitoring the progress of student learning is an important part of teachers’ data-based decision making. One such tool that can equip teachers with information about students’ learning progress throughout the school year and thus facilitate monitoring ...

2D Problem for a Long Cylinder in the Fractional Theory of Thermoelasticity

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Solids and Structures
In this manuscript, we solve an asymmetric 2D problem for a long cylinder. The surface is assumed to be traction free and subjected to an asymmetric temperature distribution.

Penalized flexible Bayesian quantile regression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Copyright © 2012 SciResThis article has been made available through the Brunel Open Access Publishing Fund.The selection of predictors plays a crucial role in building a multiple regression model. Indeed, the choice of a suitable subset of predictors can

Which quantile is the most informative? Maximum likelihood, maximum entropy and quantile regression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper studies the connections among quantile regression, the asymmetric Laplace distribution, maximum likelihood and maximum entropy. We show that the maximum likelihood problem is equivalent to the solution of a maximum entropy problem where we ...

Analysis of wealth inequality with a random money transfer model

open access: yesRUDN Journal of Economics, 2018
Increasing gap in wealth distribution is among the key issues that have been discussed worldwide in recent years. In this paper, we use the money transfer model to explain the formation of wealth distribution, by imposing two types of debt constraints ...

Bayesian Regularized Quantile Regression Analysis Based on Asymmetric Laplace Distribution

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics and Physics, 2020
In recent years, variable selection based on penalty likelihood methods has aroused great concern. Based on the Gibbs sampling algorithm of asymmetric Laplace distribution, this paper considers the quantile regression with adaptive Lasso and Lasso penalty from a Bayesian point of view.

Bayesian Quantile Regression for Single-Index Models

open access: yes, 2011
Using an asymmetric Laplace distribution, which provides a mechanism for Bayesian inference of quantile regression models, we develop a fully Bayesian approach to fitting single-index models in conditional quantile regression.
