Research Abstract |
Since a set of quantiles often provides more complete description of the response distribution than the mean, this study has focused on quantile regression, which offers an important alternative to classical mean regression. We have developed new quantile regression models and efficient simulation-based methods for analyzing economic data. We have also examined the performance of the proposed methods by empirically investigating the problems such as labor supply andmedical expenditure.
