Estimation for High-Dimensional Linear Mixed-Effects Models Using $\ell_1$-Penalization

Methodology 2011-05-12 v2 Computation

Abstract

We propose an 1\ell_1-penalized estimation procedure for high-dimensional linear mixed-effects models. The models are useful whenever there is a grouping structure among high-dimensional observations, i.e. for clustered data. We prove a consistency and an oracle optimality result and we develop an algorithm with provable numerical convergence. Furthermore, we demonstrate the performance of the method on simulated and a real high-dimensional data set.
