Sparse and Robust Factor Modelling
Factor construction methods are widely used to summarize a large panel of variables by means of a relatively small number of representative factors. We propose a novel factor construction procedure that enjoys the properties of robustness to outliers and of sparsity; that is, having relatively few nonzero factor loadings. Compared to more traditional factor construction methods, we find that th...
متن کاملRobust Estimation in Linear Regression with Molticollinearity and Sparse Models
One of the factors affecting the statistical analysis of the data is the presence of outliers. The methods which are not affected by the outliers are called robust methods. Robust regression methods are robust estimation methods of regression model parameters in the presence of outliers. Besides outliers, the linear dependency of regressor variables, which is called multicollinearity...
متن کاملLandmark-Dependent Hierarchical Beta Processfor Robust Sparse Factor Analysis
A computationally efficient landmark-dependent hierarchical beta process is developed as a prior for data with associated covariates. The landmarks define local regions in the covariate space where feature usages are likely to be similar. The landmark locations are learned, to which the data are linked through normalized kernels. The proposed model is well suited for local latent feature discov...
متن کاملHigh-Dimensional Sparse Factor Modelling: Applications in Gene Expression Genomics
In studies of molecular profiling and biological pathway analysis using DNA microarray gene expression data we are utilising a broad class of sparse latent factor and regression models for large-scale multivariate analysis and regression prediction. We present examples of these applications with discussion of key aspects of the modelling and computational methodology. Our case studies are drawn...
متن کاملRobust and sparse bridge regression
It is known that when there are heavy-tailed errors or outliers in the response, the least squares methods may fail to produce a reliable estimator. In this paper, we proposed a generalized Huber criterion which is highly flexible and robust for large errors. We applied the new criterion to the bridge regression family, called robust and sparse bridge regression (RSBR). However, to get the RSBR...
