In this paper, we study the local polynomial composite quantile regression (CQR) smoothing method for the nonlinear and nonparametric models under the Harris recurrent Markov chain framework. The local polynomial CQR regression method is a robust alternative to the widely-used local polynomial...

In this paper, we investigate the nonlinear quantile regression with mixed discrete and continuous regressors. A local linear smoothing technique with the mixed continuous and discrete kernel function is proposed to estimate the conditional quantile regression function. Under some mild...

Estimation theory in a nonstationary environment has been very popular in recent years. Existing studies focus on nonstationarity in parametric linear, parametric nonlinear and nonparametric nonlinear models. In this paper, we consider a partially linear model of nonstationary time series, in...
