报告摘要:

In this article we revisit the classical problem of how to construct valid nonparametric confidence intervals for the conditional quantile function. We first propose an adaptive bias correction procedure based on local polynomial smoothing to estimate the conditional quantile. To account for the effect of the estimated bias, we consider a new asymptotic framework that the ratio of the bandwidth to the pilot bandwidth tends to some positive constant rather than zero as the sample size grows, under which we establish an alternative asymptotic normality of the proposed estimator. An interesting finding is that we derive a new asymptotic variance formula, providing a new perspective on the impact of pilot bandwidth and demonstrating the additional variability of the estimated bias. Based on the new theoretical results, two new pointwise confidence intervals are proposed through resampling strategies. We conduct extensive simulation studies to show that our proposed confidence intervals provide better coverage probabilities than other competitors and are not much sensitive to the choice of bandwidth. Finally, our proposed procedure is further illustrated through United States’natality birth data in 2017.
