Sparse linear regression is a fundamental problem in high-dimensional statistics, but strikingly little is known about how to efficiently solve it without restrictive conditions on the design matrix. We consider the (correlated) random…

Popular sparse estimation methods based on $\ell_1$-relaxation, such as the Lasso and the Dantzig selector, require the knowledge of the variance of the noise in order to properly tune the regularization parameter. This constitutes a major…

In many important statistical applications, the number of variables or parameters $p$ is much larger than the number of observations $n$. Suppose then that we have observations $y=X\beta+z$, where $\beta\in\mathbf{R}^p$ is a parameter…

We consider a linear regression problem in a high dimensional setting where the number of covariates $p$ can be much larger than the sample size $n$. In such a situation, one often assumes sparsity of the regression vector, \textit i.e.,…

In this paper we present new theoretical results for the Dantzig and Lasso estimators of the drift in a high dimensional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck model under sparsity constraints. Our focus is on oracle inequalities for both estimators and error…

We consider the model {eqnarray*}y=X\theta^*+\xi, Z=X+\Xi,{eqnarray*} where the random vector $y\in\mathbb{R}^n$ and the random $n\times p$ matrix $Z$ are observed, the $n\times p$ matrix $X$ is unknown, $\Xi$ is an $n\times p$ random noise…

We focus on the high dimensional linear regression $Y\sim\mathcal{N}(X\beta^{*},\sigma^{2}I_{n})$, where $\beta^{*}\in\mathds{R}^{p}$ is the parameter of interest. In this setting, several estimators such as the LASSO and the Dantzig…

Sparse linear regression methods such as Lasso require a tuning parameter that depends on the noise variance, which is typically unknown and difficult to estimate in practice. In the presence of heavy-tailed noise or adversarial outliers,…
