We consider both $\ell _{0}$-penalized and $\ell _{0}$-constrained quantile regression estimators. For the $\ell _{0}$-penalized estimator, we derive an exponential inequality on the tail probability of excess quantile prediction risk and…
Imposition of a lasso penalty shrinks parameter estimates toward zero and performs continuous model selection. Lasso penalized regression is capable of handling linear regression problems where the number of predictors far exceeds the…
We proposed a new penalized method in this paper to solve sparse Poisson Regression problems. Being different from $\ell_1$ penalized log-likelihood estimation, our new method can be viewed as penalized weighted score function method. We…
The $\ell_1$-penalized method, or the Lasso, has emerged as an important tool for the analysis of large data sets. Many important results have been obtained for the Lasso in linear regression which have led to a deeper understanding of…
In this paper, we study norm-based regularization methods for neural networks. We compare existing penalization approaches and introduce two regularization strategies that extend classical ridge- and lasso-type penalties to neural network…
I review some of the main methods for selecting tuning parameters in nonparametric and $\ell_1$-penalized estimation. For the nonparametric estimation, I consider the methods of Mallows, Stein, Lepski, cross-validation, penalization, and…
Various $\ell_1$-penalised estimation methods such as graphical lasso and CLIME are widely used for sparse precision matrix estimation. Many of these methods have been shown to be consistent under various quantitative assumptions about the…
We propose a novel $\ell_1+\ell_2$-penalty, which we refer to as the Generalized Elastic Net, for regression problems where the feature vectors are indexed by vertices of a given graph and the true signal is believed to be smooth or…
Two approximation algorithms are proposed for $\ell_1$-regularized sparse rank-1 approximation to higher-order tensors. The algorithms are based on multilinear relaxation and sparsification, which are easily implemented and well scalable.…
Regularization of ill-posed linear inverse problems via $\ell_1$ penalization has been proposed for cases where the solution is known to be (almost) sparse. One way to obtain the minimizer of such an $\ell_1$ penalized functional is via an…
This article explores the estimation of precision matrices in high-dimensional Gaussian graphical models. We address the challenge of improving the accuracy of maximum likelihood-based precision estimation through penalization.…
This paper investigates simple bilevel optimization problems where we minimize an upper-level objective over the optimal solution set of a convex lower-level objective. Existing methods for such problems either only guarantee asymptotic…
The $\ell_{1\text{-}2}$ regularization method has a strong sparsity promoting capability in approaching sparse solutions of linear inverse problems and gained successful applications in various mathematics and applied science fields. This…
This paper deals with sparse feature selection and grouping for classification and regression. The classification or regression problems under consideration consists in minimizing a convex empirical risk function subject to an $\ell^1$…
We study sparse linear regression over a network of agents, modeled as an undirected graph (with no centralized node). The estimation problem is formulated as the minimization of the sum of the local LASSO loss functions plus a quadratic…
A new method is proposed for variable screening, variable selection and prediction in linear regression problems where the number of predictors can be much larger than the number of observations. The method involves minimizing a penalized…
Sparse high dimensional graphical model selection is a popular topic in contemporary machine learning. To this end, various useful approaches have been proposed in the context of $\ell_1$-penalized estimation in the Gaussian framework.…
We consider the problem of learning a sparse graph under the Laplacian constrained Gaussian graphical models. This problem can be formulated as a penalized maximum likelihood estimation of the Laplacian constrained precision matrix. Like in…
Undirected graphs are often used to describe high dimensional distributions. Under sparsity conditions, the graph can be estimated using $\ell_1$-penalization methods. We propose and study the following method. We combine a multiple…
Many experiments in medicine and ecology can be conveniently modeled by finite Gaussian mixtures but face the problem of dealing with small data sets. We propose a robust version of the estimator based on self-regression and sparsity…
