An Overview of the New Feature Selection Methods in Finite Mixture of Regression Models
Variable (feature) selection has attracted much attention in contemporary statistical learning and recent scientific research. This is mainly due to the rapid advancement in modern technology that allows scientists to collect data of unprecedented size and complexity. One type of statistical problem in such applications is concerned with modeling an output variable as a function of a sma...
متن کاملPenalized Bregman Divergence Estimation via Coordinate Descent
Variable selection via penalized estimation is appealing for dimension reduction. For penalized linear regression, Efron, et al. (2004) introduced the LARS algorithm. Recently, the coordinate descent (CD) algorithm was developed by Friedman, et al. (2007) for penalized linear regression and penalized logistic regression and was shown to gain computational superiority. This paper explores...
متن کاملMultiple loci mapping via model-free variable selection.
Despite recent flourish of proposals on variable selection, genome-wide multiple loci mapping remains to be challenging. The majority of existing variable selection methods impose a model, and often the homoscedastic linear model, prior to selection. However, the true association between the phenotypical trait and the genetic markers is rarely known a priori, and the presence of epistatic inter...
متن کاملSelection of Variables that Influence Drug Injection in Prison: Comparison of Methods with Multiple Imputed Data Sets
Background: Prisoners, compared to the general population, are at greater risk of infection. Drug injection is the main route of HIV transmission, in particular in Iran. What would be of interest is to determine variables that govern drug injection among prisoners. However, one of the issues that challenge model building is incomplete national data sets. In this paper, we addressed the process ...
متن کاملStatistical Methods for Latent Class Quantitative Trait Loci Mapping
Identifying the genetic basis of complex traits is an important problem with the potential to impact a broad range of biological endeavors. A number of effective statistical methods are available for quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping that allow for the efficient identification of multiple, potentially interacting, loci under a variety of experimental conditions. Although proven useful in hu...
