For many applications, analyzing multiple response variables jointly is desirable because of their dependency, and valuable information about the distribution can be retrieved by estimating quantiles. In this paper, we propose a multi-task quantile regression method that exploits the potential...

In this paper, we propose a multivariate quantile regression method which enables localized analysis on conditional quantiles and global comovement analysis on conditional ranges for high-dimensional data. The proposed method, hereafter referred to as FActorisable Sparse Tail Event Curves, or...

The influence of maternal health problems on child's worrying status is important in practice in terms of the intervention of maternal health problems early for the influence on child's worrying status. Conventional methods apply symmetric prior distributions such as a normal distribution or a...

In clusterwise regression analysis, the goal is to predict a response variable based on a set of explanatory variables, each with cluster-specific effects. Nowadays, the number of candidates is typically large: whereas some of these variables might be useful, some others might contribute very...

This paper is concerned with variable selection in linear high-dimensional frameworks when the covariates under consideration are highly correlated. Existing methods in the literature generally require that the degree of correlation among covariates be weak, yet, often in applied research,...

We study inference for threshold regression in the context of a large panel factor model with common stochastic trends. We develop a Least Squares estimator for the threshold level, deriving almost sure rates of convergence and proposing a novel, testing based, way of constructing confidence...

Child birth leads to a break in a woman's employment history and is considered one reason for the relatively poor labor market outcomes observed for women compared to men. However, the time spent at home after child birth varies significantly across mothers and is likely driven by observed and,...
