a b s t r a c tThis paper focuses on the variable selections for semiparametric varying coefficient partially linear models when the covariates in the parametric and nonparametric components are all measured with errors. A bias-corrected variable selection procedure is proposed by combining basis function approximations with shrinkage estimations. With appropriate selection of the tuning parameters, the consistency of the variable selection procedure and the oracle property of the regularized estimators are established. A simulation study and a real data application are undertaken to evaluate the finite sample performance of the proposed method.
In this paper, we present a variable selection procedure by using basis function approximations and a partial group SCAD penalty for semiparametric varying coefficient partially linear models with longitudinal data. With appropriate selection of the tuning parameters, we establish the oracle property of this procedure. A simulation study is undertaken to assess the finite sample performance of the proposed variable selection procedure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
