Partial Quantile Tensor Regression.

ABSTRACT: Tensors, characterized as multidimensional arrays, are frequently encountered in modern scientific studies. Quantile regression has the unique capacity to explore how a tensor covariate influences different segments of the response distribution. In this work, we propose a partial quantile tensor regression (PQTR) framework, which novelly applies the core principle of the partial least squares technique to achieve effective dimension reduction for quantile regression with a tensor covariate. The proposed PQTR algorithm is computationally efficient and scalable to a large tensor covariate. Moreover, we uncover an appealing latent variable model representation for the PQTR algorithm, justifying a simple population interpretation of the resulting estimator. We further investigate the connectio
