4 摘要：

在该文中我们使用协变量的二项决策函数（即两步阶梯函数）去近似条件分位数函数，证明了在这个错误设定的条件分位数模型里，其估计量呈现出立方根渐进性质。二项决策函数的最优分割点的推断是通过反转一个t检验或一个偏差测量检验来进行，二者都涉及切尔诺夫极限分布。为避免估计复杂极限分布中的多余参数，子样本抽样被证明可以提供正确的置信区间/集。

Abstract:

In this paper weshow the occurrence of cubic-root asymptotics in misspecified conditional quantile models where the approximating functionsare restricted to be binary decision trees. Inference procedure for the optimal split point in the decision tree isconducted by inverting a t test or adeviation measure test, both involving Chernoff type limitingdistributions. In order to avoid estimating the nuisance parameters in thecomplicated limiting distribution, subsampling is proved to deliver the correctconfidence interval/set.

Keywords: Cubic-root Asymptotics, ChernoffDistribution, Misspecified Quantile Regression, OptimalSplit Point
