Abstract:

In this talk, I will introduce a new but very simple framework to tackle the large p small n problems. The framework decomposes the data into pieces so that existing methods can be applied. We propose two separate paths to implement the framework. Our paths provide sufficient procedures for identifying informative variables, sequentially. The paths are very general and shall have a great impact in high-dimensional data analysis. We shall illustrate their efficacy via simulation and a real data application by using sufficient dimension reduction and sufficient variable selection methods.
