midrqControl.RdA list of parameters for controlling the fitting process.
midrqControl(method = "Nelder-Mead", ecdf_est = "npc", npc_args = list())character vector that specifies the optimization algorithm in optim to fit a conditional mid-quantile model when type = 1 or type = 2. Only "Nelder-Mead" has been tested.
estimator of the (standard) conditional cumulative distribution. The options are: npc (default) for kernel estimator (Li and Racine, 2008); logit, probit, cloglog for binomial regression; ao for Aranda-Ordaz binomial regression.
named list of arguments for npcdistbw when ecdf_est = npc.
