Variable Selection via Penalized Likelihood
Variable selection is vital to statistical data analyses. Many of procedures in use are ad hoc stepwise selection procedures, which are computationally expensive and ignore stochastic errors in the variable selection process of previous steps. An automatic and simultaneous variable selection procedure can be obtained by using a penalized likelihood method. In traditional linear models, the best...
متن کاملParametric Recovery of Line-of-sight Velocity Distributions from Absorption-line Spectra of Galaxies via Penalized Likelihood
We investigate the accuracy of the parametric recovery of the line-of-sight velocity distribution (LOSVD) of the stars in a galaxy, while working in pixel space. Problems appear when the data have a low signal-to-noise ratio, or the observed LOSVD is not well sampled by the data. We propose a simple solution based on maximum penalized likelihood and we apply it to the common situation in which ...
متن کاملGeneralized Nonparametric Regression via Penalized Likelihood
We consider the asymptotic analysis of penalized likelihood type estimators for generalized non-parametric regression problems in which the target parameter is a vector valued function defined in terms of the conditional distribution of a response given a set of covariates, A variety of examples including ones related to generalized linear models and robust smoothing are covered by the theory. ...
متن کاملPenalized Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Univariate Normal Mixture Distributions
Due to singularities of the likelihood function, the maximum likelihood approach for the estimation of the parameters of normal mixture models is an acknowledged ill posed optimization problem. Ill posedness is solved by penalizing the likelihood function. In the Bayesian framework, it amounts to incorporating an inverted gamma prior in the likelihood function. A penalized version of the EM alg...
