Robust Interpolated Quantile Estimators: Asymptotic Theory and Efficiency
稳健插值分位数估计量:渐近理论与效率
This paper introduces a unified family of interpolated quantile estimators obtained by augmenting the check loss with quadratic, Huber, or Tukey's bisquare regularization. The estimators are indexed by the quantile level $τ$ and an interpolation parameter $h$. They reduce to the classical empirical quantile when $h=0$, while increasing $h$ continuously shifts the effective probability level toward the center of the distribution. A complete asymptotic theory is developed. For…
