In the context of high-dimensional Gaussian linear regression for ordered variables, we study the variable selection procedure via the minimization of the penalized least-squares criterion. We focus on model selection where the penalty…

The IBOSS approach proposed by Wang et al. (2019) selects the most informative subset of n points. It assumes that the ordinary least squares method is used and requires that the number of variables, p, is not large. However, in many…
