An Adapted Loss Function for Censored Quantile Regression
删失分位数回归的适配损失函数
In this article, we study a novel approach for the estimation of quantiles when facing potential right censoring of the responses. Contrary to the existing literature on the subject, the adopted strategy of this article is to tackle censoring at the very level of the loss function usually employed for the computation of quantiles, the so-called “check” function. For interpretation purposes, a simple comparison with the latter reveals how censoring is accounted for in the…
