Gibbs Sampler Algorithm of Bayesian Weighted Composite Quantile Regression

Most regression modeling is based on traditional mean regression which results in non-robust estimation results for non-normal errors. Compared to conventional mean regression, composite quantile regression (CQR) may produce more robust parameters estimation. Based on a composite asymmetric Laplace distribution (CALD), we build a Bayesian hierarchical model for the weighted CQR (WCQR). The Gibbs sampler algorithm of Bayesian WCQR is developed to implement posterior inference. Finally, the proposed method are illustrated by some simulation studies and a real data analysis.
