Functional linear regression analysis aims to model regression relations which include a functional predictor. The analog of the regression parameter vector or matrix in conventional multivariate or multiple-response linear regression…
Variable selection for Gaussian process models is often done using automatic relevance determination, which uses the inverse length-scale parameter of each input variable as a proxy for variable relevance. This implicitly determined…
Variable selection is crucial for sparse modeling in this age of big data. Missing values are common in data, and make variable selection more complicated. The approach of multiple imputation (MI) results in multiply imputed datasets for…
We propose a method for incorporating variable selection into local polynomial regression. This can improve the accuracy of the regression by extending the bandwidth in directions corresponding to those variables judged to be are…
This paper considers linear model selection when the response is vector-valued and the predictors are randomly observed. We propose a new approach that decouples statistical inference from the selection step in a "post-inference model…
An econometric or statistical model may undergo a marginal gain if we admit a new variable to the model, and a marginal loss if we remove an existing variable from the model. Assuming equality of opportunity among all candidate variables,…
We study a regression model with a huge number of interacting variables. We consider a specific approximation of the regression function under two ssumptions: (i) there exists a sparse representation of the regression function in a…
We consider nonparametric prediction with multiple covariates, in particular categorical or functional predictors, or a mixture of both. The method proposed bases on an extension of the Nadaraya-Watson estimator where a kernel function is…
We examine the linear regression problem in a challenging high-dimensional setting with correlated predictors where the vector of coefficients can vary from sparse to dense. In this setting, we propose a combination of probabilistic…
