How SVMs can estimate quantiles and the median
We investigate quantile regression based on the pinball loss and the ǫ-insensitive loss. For the pinball loss a condition on the data-generating distribution P is given that ensu...

Nonlinear Quantile Regression Estimation of Longitudinal Data
This paper examines a weighted version of the quantile regression estimator defined by Koenker and Bassett (1978), adjusted to the case of nonlinear longitudinal data. Different w...

Kernel Conditional Quantile Estimation via Reduction Revisited
Quantile regression refers to the process of estimating the quantiles of a conditional distribution and has many important applications within econometrics and data mining, among ...

The P-Square Algorithm for Dynamic Calculation of Percentiles and Histograms without Storing Observations
A heuristic algorithm is proposed for dynamic calculation of the median and other quantiles. The estimates are produced dynamically as the observations are generated. The observati...

Using quantile estimates in simulating internet queues with Pareto service times
It is readily apparent how important the Internet is to modern life. The exponential growth in its use requires good tools for analyzing congestion. Much has been written recently...
