A list of parameters for controlling the fitting process.
midrqControl(method = "Nelder-Mead", ecdf_est = "npc", npc_args = list())
a list of control parameters.
character vector that specifies the optimization algorithm in optim
to fit a conditional mid-quantile model when type = 1
or type = 2
. Only "Nelder-Mead"
has been tested.
estimator of the (standard) conditional cumulative distribution. The options are: npc
(default) for kernel estimator (Li and Racine, 2008); logit
, probit
, cloglog
for binomial regression; ao
for Aranda-Ordaz binomial regression.
named list of arguments for npcdistbw
