Abstract: In this paper, we focus on the partially linear varying-coefficient quantile regression model with observations missing at random (MAR), which include the responses or the responses and covariates MAR. Based on the local linear estimation of the varying-coefficient function in the model, we construct empirical log-likelihood ratio functions for unknown parameter in the linear part of the model, which are proved to be asymptotically weighted chi-squared distributions, further the adjusted empirical log-likelihood ratio functions are verified to converge to standard chi-squared distribution. The asymptotic normality of maximum empirical likelihood estimator for the parameter is also established. In order to do variable selection, we consider penalized empirical likelihood by using smoothly clipped absolute deviationv (SCAD) penalty, and the oracle property of the penalized likelihood estimator of the parameter is proved. Furthermore, Monte Carlo simulation and a real data analysis are undertaken to test the performance of the proposed methods.
