Abstract:
|
We study high-dimensional regression models contaminated by multiple mean-shift outliers affecting both the response and some of the predictors. Under a sparsity assumption, we propose the use of Mixed-Integer Programming techniques to simultaneously perform feature selection and outlier detection. We prove theoretical properties of this approach and show its superior performance than competing methods in an extensive simulation study and a real data application.
