We consider linear mixed models in which the observations are grouped. A L1-penalization on the fixed effects coefficients of the log-likelihood obtained by considering the random effects as missing values is proposed. A multicycle ECM…

This paper presents a general theoretical framework of penalized quasi-maximum likelihood (PQML) estimation in stationary multiple time series models when the number of parameters possibly diverges. We show the oracle property of the PQML…

We study high-dimensional estimators with the trimmed $\ell_1$ penalty, which leaves the $h$ largest parameter entries penalty-free. While optimization techniques for this nonconvex penalty have been studied, the statistical properties have…

Many experiments in medicine and ecology can be conveniently modeled by finite Gaussian mixtures but face the problem of dealing with small data sets. We propose a robust version of the estimator based on self-regression and sparsity…
