Sinkhorn Distributionally Robust Conditional Quantile Prediction with Fixed Design

Abstract:
This paper proposes a novel data-driven distributionally robust framework for conditional quantile prediction under the fixed design setting of the covariates, which we refer to as Sinkhorn distributionally robust conditional quantile prediction. We derive a convex programming dual reformulation of the proposed problem and further develop a conic optimization reformulation for the case with finite support. Our method's superior performance is demonstrated through several numerical experiments, highlighting its effectiveness in practical applications.

Distributions to Estimate Population Parameter
Prediction Intervals
However, the point estimate is most likely not the exact value of the population parameter, but close to it. After calculating point estimates, we construct interval estimates, called confidence intervals or prediction intervals. This prediction interval comprises a range of values unlike the point estimate and is a better predictor of the observed sample value, y.

Testing a Claim about Standard Deviation
The hypothesis testing for the claim of population standard deviation (or variance) requires the data and samples to be random and unbiased. The population distribution also must be normal. There is no specific requirement on the sample size as the estimation is based on the chi-square distribution.
As a first step, the hypothesis (null and alternative) concerning the claim about...
