Birnbaum‐Saunders quantile regression and its diagnostics with application to economic data

Abstract The Birnbaum‐Saunders (BS) distribution is a model that frequently appears in the statistical literature and has proved to be very versatile and efficient across a wide range of applications. However, despite the growing interest in the study of the BS distribution, quantile regression modeling has not been considered for this distribution. To fill this gap, we introduce a class of quantile regression models based on the BS …
