A Confidence Region Approach to Tuning for Variable Selection

JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL AND GRAPHICAL STATISTICS, 21(2), 295–314.

By: F. Gunes n & H. Bondell*

author keywords: Adaptive LASSO; Penalized regression; Tuning parameter
TL;DR: An approach to tuning of penalized regression variable selection methods by calculating the sparsest estimator contained in a confidence region of a specified level is developed, and it is proved that by tuning with a sequence of confidence levels converging to one, asymptotic selection consistency is obtained, and with a simple two-stage procedure, an oracle property is achieved.
