Objective Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) is relatively uncommon because of the lower fibrotic burden and the predominance of vascular complications. In vitro observations and clinical data from transplanted patients suggest a protective effect of MMF on endothelial function.

Prior elicitation and variable selection for bayesian quantile regression [PDF]
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Bayesian subset selection suffers from three important difficulties: assigning priors over model space, assigning priors to all components of the regression

Empirical likelihood for quantile regression models with response data missing at random
This paper studies quantile linear regression models with response data missing at random. A quantile empirical-likelihood-based method is proposed firstly to study a quantile linear regression model with response data missing at random.

Functional coefficient quantile regression model with time-varying loadings
This paper proposes a functional coefficient quantile regression model with heterogeneous and time-varying regression coefficients and factor loadings. Estimation of the model coefficients is done in two stages.

Applying quantile regression to determine the effects of household characteristics on household saving rates in Vietnam [PDF]
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to analyse the determinants of the saving behaviour of Vietnamese households and to explore the possible heterogeneity of household saving propensities. Design/methodology/approach – The authors estimate the effects

Predicting extreme defects in additive manufacturing remains a key challenge limiting its structural reliability. This study proposes a statistical framework that integrates Extreme Value Theory with advanced process indicators to explore defect–process relationships and improve the estimation of critical defect sizes. The approach provides a basis for

Probabilistic Solar Forecasting Using Quantile Regression Models
In this work, we assess the performance of three probabilistic models for intra-day solar forecasting. More precisely, a linear quantile regression method is used to build three models for generating 1 h–6 h-ahead probabilistic forecasts. Our approach is

An Improved Interior Point Algorithm for Quantile Regression
Quantile regression is a powerful statistical technique for estimating the quantiles of a conditional distribution on the values of covariates. It has been widely used in many fields.

Predictions in Quantile Regressions
Two different tools to evaluate quantile regression forecasts are proposed: MAD, to summarize forecast errors, and a fluctuation test to evaluate in-sample predictions. The scores of the PISA test to evaluate students’ proficiency are considered. Growth analysis relates school attainment to economic growth.

Quantile regression, as introduced by Koenker and Bassett (1978), may be viewed as an extension of classical least squares estimation of conditional mean models to the estimation of an ensemble of models for several conditional quantile functions. The central special case is the median regression estimator which minimizes a sum of absolute errors ...
