[R] Stochastyic frontier regression

[Roger Koenker]

Martin,

You can model conditional near extreme quantile functions  of a univariate
response variable with the quantreg package.  The following reference:


@article{CTS.99,
        Author = {Cade, B.S. and Terrell, J.W. and Schroeder, R.L.},
        Title = { Estimating effects of limiting factors with regression
                quantiles},
        Journal = {Ecology},
        Volume = {80},
        Pages = {311-323},
        Year = 1999
}

describes some ecological applications.
