This chapter reviews the literature on variable selection in nonparametric and semiparametric regression models via shrinkage. We highlight recent developments on simultaneous variable selection and estimation through the methods of least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (Lasso), smoothly clipped absolute deviation (SCAD) or their variants, but restrict our attention to nonparametric a...
For autoregressive and moving-average (ARMA) models with infinite variance innovations, quasi-likelihood based estimators (such as Whittle’s estimators ) suffer from complex asymptotic distributions depending on unknown tail indices. This makes the statistical inference for such models difficult. In contrast, the least absolute deviations estimators (LADE) are more appealing in dealing with hea...
We explore the extension of James-Stein type estimators in a direction that enables them to preserve their superiority when the sample size goes to infinity. Instead of shrinking a base estimator towards a fixed point, we shrink it towards a data-dependent point, which makes it possible that the “prior” becomes more accurate as the sample size grows. We provide an analytic expression for the as...
