Abstract:
|
Sparse regression methods, which assume that a subset of effects are negligible, have become increasingly important. This paper describes the construction of hierarchical prior distributions in sparse regression problems. These allow dependence between the regression coefficients and the shrinkage of different regression coefficent to zero to related. The properties of the prior are discussed and applications to linear models with interactions and generalized additive models are used as illustrations.
