SCAD penalized rank regression with a diverging number of parameters

Nonconcave Penalized Likelihood with a Diverging Number of Parameters By

A class of variable selection procedures for parametric models via nonconcave penalized likelihood was proposed by Fan and Li to simultaneously estimate parameters and select important variables. They demonstrated that this class of procedures has an oracle property when the number of parameters is finite. However, in most model selection problems the number of parameters should be large and gr...

Nonconcave Penalized M-estimation with a Diverging Number of Parameters

M-estimation is a widely used technique for robust statistical inference. In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic properties of a nonconcave penalized M-estimator in sparse, high-dimensional, linear regression models. Compared with classic M-estimation, the nonconcave penalized M-estimation method can perform parameter estimation and variable selection simultaneously. The proposed method i...

SCAD-Penalized Regression in High-Dimensional Partially Linear Models

We consider the problem of simultaneous variable selection and estimation in partially linear models with a divergent number of covariates in the linear part, under the assumption that the vector of regression coefficients is sparse. We apply the SCAD penalty to achieve sparsity in the linear part and use polynomial splines to estimate the nonparametric component. Under reasonable conditions, i...
