Use of Two Smoothing Parameters in Penalized Spline Estimator for Bi-variate Predictor Non-parametric Regression Model
Penalized spline criteria involve the function of goodness of fit and penalty, which in the penalty function contains smoothing parameters. It serves to control the smoothness of the curve that works simultaneously with point knots and spline degree. The regression function with two predictors in the non-parametric model will have two different non-parametric regression functions. Therefore, we...
متن کاملPenalized Lasso Methods in Health Data: application to trauma and influenza data of Kerman
Background: Two main issues that challenge model building are number of Events Per Variable and multicollinearity among exploratory variables. Our aim is to review statistical methods that tackle these issues with emphasize on penalized Lasso regression model. The present study aimed to explain problems of traditional regressions due to small sample size and m...
متن کاملA Blockwise Descent Algorithm for Group-penalized Multiresponse and Multinomial Regression
In this paper we purpose a blockwise descent algorithm for group-penalized multiresponse regression. Using a quasi-newton framework we extend this to group-penalized multinomial regression. We give the first publicly available implementation for these in R, and compare the speed of this algorithm to a similar algorithm for standard `1-penalized multinomial regression on simulated data — we show...
متن کاملPenalized Bregman Divergence Estimation via Coordinate Descent
Variable selection via penalized estimation is appealing for dimension reduction. For penalized linear regression, Efron, et al. (2004) introduced the LARS algorithm. Recently, the coordinate descent (CD) algorithm was developed by Friedman, et al. (2007) for penalized linear regression and penalized logistic regression and was shown to gain computational superiority. This paper explores...
متن کاملForecasting Gold Price Changes: Application of an Equipped Artificial Neural Network
The forecast of fluctuations and prices is the major concern in financial markets. Thus, developing an accurate and robust forecasting decision model is critically favorable to the investors. As gold has shown a special capability to smooth inflation fluctuations, governors use gold as a price controlling lever. Thus, more information about future gold price trends will help to make the firm de...
