Abstract

This paper studies smoothed quantile linear regression models with response data missing at random. Three smoothed quantile empirical likelihood ratios are proposed first and shown to be asymptotically Chi-squared. Then, the confidence intervals for the regression coefficients are constructed without the estimation of the asymptotic covariance. Furthermore, a class of estimators for the regression parameter is presented to derive its asymptotic distribution. Simulation studies are conducted to assess the finite sample performance. Finally, a real-world data set is analyzed to illustrated the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
