New method improves quantile regression with scarce high-fidelity data

Researchers have developed a novel two-stage method for multi-fidelity quantile regression, designed to improve the accuracy of quantile estimation when high-fidelity data is scarce and expensive. The approach utilizes a local quantile link, representing high-fidelity quantiles based on low-fidelity quantiles evaluated at a covariate-dependent level. This reformulation simplifies the problem to estimating a smoother level function, with theoretical analysis and experimental results demonstrating faster convergence and more accurate predictions compared to using high-fidelity data alone.
