Several new methods have been proposed for performing valid inference after model selection. An older method is sampling splitting: use part of the data for model selection and part for inference. In this paper we revisit sample splitting…

To successfully work on variable selection, sparse model structure has become a basic assumption for all existing methods. However, this assumption is questionable as it is hard to hold in most of cases and none of existing methods may…
