In cqrReg: Quantile, Composite Quantile Regression and Regularized Versions

Composite Quantile regression (cqr) use Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) algorithm.

Description

Composite quantile regression (cqr) find the estimated coefficient which minimize the absolute error for various quantile level. The problem is well suited to distributed convex optimization and is based on Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) algorithm .

Usage

cqr.admm(X,y,tau,rho,beta, maxit, toler)

Arguments

X	the design matrix
y	response variable
tau	vector of quantile level
rho	augmented Lagrangian parameter
beta	initial value of estimate coefficient (default naive guess by least square estimation)
maxit	maxim iteration (default 200)
toler	the tolerance critical for stop the algorithm (default 1e-3)

Value

a list structure is with components

beta	the vector of estimated coefficient
b	intercept

Note

cqr.admm(x,y,tau) work properly only if the least square estimation is good.
