Title: Variable Selection for High-Dimensional Correlated Data
Author(s): Xihong Lin*+
Companies: Harvard University
Address: Department of Biostatistics, Boston, MA, 02115,
Keywords: Variable selection ; Penalized Likelihood ; Correlated data ; Sparseness ; Asymptotics ; High-dimensional data
Abstract:

We propose several variable selection methods for correlated data, such as longitudinal and clustered data, based on regularized likelihood functions. We study the theoretical properties of these methods, and compare their theoretical performance. Their finite sample performance is evaluated using simulation studies and illustrated using a data example.
