In statistics, quartiles are a method of breaking up a set of numbers into four equal parts. While this concept may seem simple, it actually requires some in-depth calculations to determine the exact ...

Estimating the conditional quantiles of outcome variables of interest is frequent in many research areas, and quantile regression is foremost among the utilized methods. The coefficients of a quantile ...

This paper investigates the bias and the weak Bahadur representation of a local polynomial estimator of the conditional quantile function and its derivatives. The bias and Bahadur remainder term are ...

A compound Poisson distribution is the sum of independent and identically distributed random variables over a count variable that follows a Poisson distribution. Generally, this distribution is not ...
