Abstract:

Penalized methods are widely used in high-dimensional data analysis. In linear regression, a number of penalized least squares estimators are rate optimal in consistent variable selection and estimation of regression coefficients. Extensions of such results to more general convex minimization problems will be considered. Examples include generalized linear models and quantile regression.
