Variable selection in linear regression settings is a much discussed problem. Best subset selection (BSS) is often considered the intuitive 'gold standard', with its use being restricted only by its NP-hard nature. Alternatives such as the…

Given data $y$ and $k$ covariates $x$ one problem in linear regression is to decide which in any of the covariates to include when regressing $y$ on the $x$. If $k$ is small it is possible to evaluate each subset of the $x$. If however $k$…
