报告题目:Cumulative Divergence With Application to Forward Regression
摘要:Feature screening plays a pivotal role in analysis of ultra-high dimensional data. Various screening methods are proposed based on marginal correlations between a response variable and a covariate vector. Despite their encouraging applications, the existing methods often suffer from model mis-specification and presence of outliers. In addition, an appropriate screening size needs to be carefully specified for existing methods. This paper aims to develop a model-free forward screening procedure based on cumulative divergence (CD), a new correlation metric proposed in this work. The CD is a robust measure to test regressional independence of a covariate in the presence of outliers or extreme values. This robust property makes CD-based screening method very appealing for handling high dimensional noisy data. The newly proposed forward CD-based screening procedure accounts for joint effects among features. Moreover, it can automatically determine the number of features that are to be screened out. Under some regularity conditions, we show that the proposed method is screening-consistent. Our simulation study shows the CD-based feature screening procedure is quite promising. We further illustrate the proposed method through a real data example.
