Joint Quantile Shrinkage: A State-Space Approach toward Non-Crossing Bayesian Quantile Models
联合分位数收缩:面向非交叉贝叶斯分位数模型的状态空间方法
Crossing of fitted conditional quantiles is a prevalent problem for quantile regression models. We propose a new Bayesian modelling framework that penalises multiple quantile regression functions toward the desired non-crossing space. We achieve this by estimating multiple quantiles jointly with a prior on variation across quantiles, a fused shrinkage prior with quantile adaptivity. The posterior is derived from a decision-theoretic general Bayes perspective, whose form…
