Bayesian nonparametric quantile mixed-effects models via regularization using Gaussian process priors
In this study, we proposed using Bayesian nonparametric quantile mixed-effects models (BNQMs) to estimate the nonlinear structure of quantiles in...

Quantile Estimation in a Generalized Asymmetric Distributional Setting
Allowing for symmetry in distributionsGijbels, Irène is often a necessity inKarim, Rezaul statistical modelling. This paper studies a broad... -
Distributional Regression Models
Essentially, all regression models that we have dealt with thus far have been mean regression models since they relate the predictor... -
Logistic Quantile Regression for Bounded Outcomes Using a Family of Heavy-Tailed Distributions
Mean regression model could be inadequate if the probability distribution of the observed responses is not symmetric. Under such situation, the...

A Comparison of Estimation Methods for Shared Gamma Frailty Models
This paper compares six different estimation methods for shared frailty models via a series of simulation studies. A shared frailty model is a...

Computing Finite Mixture Estimators in the Tails
The finite mixtures approach identifies homogeneous groups within the sample. The data are aggregated into classes sharing similar patterns without...

Robust mixture regression modeling based on two-piece scale mixtures of normal distributions
The inference of mixture regression models (MRM) is traditionally based on the normal (symmetry) assumption of component errors and thus is sensitive...

Multivariate Skew Distributions
In this chapter we provide a systematic treatment of several multivariate skew distributions. General formulae for cumulant vectors at least up to... -
Some Bivariate and Multivariate Models Involving Independent Gamma Distributed Components
Several multivariate models involving independent gamma distributed components (three of which are new) are described. The flexible bivariate beta(2)... -
Bayesian joint inference for multivariate quantile regression model with L\(_{1/2}\) penalty
