class MQuantileNorm(RobustNorm):
"""M-quantiles objective function based on a base norm
This norm has the same asymmetric structure as the objective function
in QuantileRegression but replaces the L1 absolute value by a chosen
base norm.
rho_q(u) = abs(q - I(q < 0)) * rho_base(u)
or, equivalently,
rho_q(u) = q * rho_base(u) if u >= 0
rho_q(u) = (1 - q) * rho_base(u) if u < 0
Parameters
----------
q : float
M-quantile, must be between 0 and 1
base_norm : RobustNorm instance
basic norm that is transformed into an asymmetric M-quantile norm
Notes
-----
This is mainly for base norms that are not redescending, like HuberT or
LeastSquares. (See Jones for the relationship of M-quantiles to quantiles
in the case of non-redescending Norms.)
Expectiles are M-quantiles with the LeastSquares as base norm.
