Surface Estimation, Variable Selection, and the Nonparametric Oracle Property.
Variable selection for multivariate nonparametric regression is an important, yet challenging, problem due, in part, to the infinite dimensionality of the function space. An ideal selection procedure should be automatic, stable, easy to use, and have desirable asymptotic properties. In particular, we define a selection procedure to be nonparametric oracle (np-oracle) if it consistently selects ...
متن کاملNonparametric estimation of the link function including variable selection
Nonparametric methods for the estimation of the link function in generalized linear models are able to avoid bias in the regression parameters. But for the estimation of the link typically the full model, which includes all predictors, has been used. When the number of predictors is large these methods fail since the full model can not be estimated. In the present article a boosting type method...
متن کاملEstimation and Variable Selection in Additive Nonparametric Regression Models 1
Additive regression models have been shown to be useful in many situations. Numerical estimation of these models is usually done using the back-tting technique. This iterative numerical procedure converges very fast but has the disadvantage of a complicated`hat matrix.' This paper proposes an estimator with an explicit`hat matrix' which does not use backktting. The asymptotic normality of the e...
متن کاملVariable Selection With the Strong Heredity Constraint and Its Oracle Property
In this paper, we extend the LASSO method (Tibshirani 1996) for simultaneously fitting a regression model and identifying important interaction terms. Unlike most of the existing variable selection methods, our method automatically enforces the heredity constraint, that is, an interaction term can be included in the model only if the corresponding main terms are also included in the model. Furt...
متن کاملGroup variable selection via a hierarchical lasso and its oracle property
In many engineering and scientific applications, prediction variables are grouped, for example, in biological applications where assayed genes or proteins can be grouped by biological roles or biological pathways. Common statistical analysis methods such as ANOVA, factor analysis, and functional modeling with basis sets also exhibit natural variable groupings. Existing successful group variable...
