초록

Support vector quantile regression(SVQR) is capable of providing a good description of the linear and nonlinear relationships among random variables. In this paper we propose a sparse SVQR to overcome a limitation of SVQR, nonsparsity. The asymmetric e-insensitive loss function is used to efficiently provide sparsity. The experimental results are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed method by comparing it with nonsparse SVQR.
