The choice of a smoothing parameter or bandwidth is crucial when applying non- parametric regression estimators. In … nonparametric mean regression various meth- ods for bandwidth selection exists. But in nonparametric quantile regression band- width … local linear quantile regression based on cross-validation and local likeli- hood estimation is used. …
