quantiles: Identification function for state-dependent quantiles

Description

Main alternative to estimating state-dependent quantiles based on the quantile identification function are state-dependent expectiles.

Usage

quantiles(x, y, stateVariable, theta, model, ...)

Arguments

x

forecast

y

realization

stateVariable

state variable

theta

model parameter to be estimated

model

model function

...

Examples

# NOT RUN {
### estimate expectation of identification function for quantile forecasts

set.seed(1)
y <- rnorm(1000)
x <- qnorm(0.6)
# expectation of identification with quantile level 0.6 is zero
mean(quantiles(x,y,0,0.6,constant))
# expectation of identification function with different quantile level
# (0.5 is the median) is not zero
mean(quantiles(x,y,0,0.5, constant))
# }
