Median Regression for SUR Models with the Same Explanatory Varia
Shukur, Ghazi; Zeebari, Zangin - Centre of Excellence for Science and Innovation … - 2011
In this paper we introduce an interesting feature of the Generalized Least Absolute Deviations (GLAD) method for Seemingly Unrelated Regression Equations (SURE) models. Contrary to the collapse of Generalized Least Squares (GLS) parameter estimations of SURE models to the Ordinary Least Squares...

Developing Median Regression for SURE Models - with Application to 3-Generation Immigrants’ data in Sweden
Zeebari, Zangin; Shukur, Ghazi - Centre of Excellence for Science and Innovation … - 2009
In this paper we generalize the median regression method in order to make it applicable to systems of regression equations. Given the existence of proper systemwise medians of the errors from different equations, we apply the weighted median regression with the weights obtained from the...
