Selection bias arises when the probability that an observation enters a dataset depends on variables related to the quantities of interest, leading to systematic distortions in estimation and uncertainty quantification. For example, in…
Sparse feature selection is necessary when we fit statistical models, we have access to a large group of features, don't know which are relevant, but assume that most are not. Alternatively, when the number of features is larger than the…
