Abstract

A weighted approach is developed to improve estimation efficiency in varying-coefficient quantile regression model, with longitudinal data. The weights are obtained from empirical likelihood of varying-coefficient mean model, where the nonparametric functions are approximated by basis splines, and the matrix expansion idea in quadratic inference function method is used, to model the inverse of conditional correlation matrix within subject. Theoretical results show that, the weighted estimators of the varying coefficients in quantile regression, can achieve higher efficiency than conventional estimators without weighting scheme. Simulation studies are used to assess the finite sample performance and a real data analysis is also conducted.
