The zero-adjusted log-symmetric quantile regression model applied to extramarital affairs data

Methodology 2021-05-11 v1 Applications

Abstract

In this work, we propose a zero-adjusted log-symmetric quantile regression model. Initially, we introduce zero-adjusted log-symmetric distributions, which allow for the accommodation of zeros. The estimation of the parameters is approached by the maximum likelihood method and a Monte Carlo simulation is performed to evaluate the estimates. Finally, we illustrate the proposed methodology with the use of a real extramarital affairs data set.
