Random Integrated Subdata Ensemble Method for Key Variable Selection in Rare Event Setting
Journal of Forecasting, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We propose a general variable selection procedure to identify key input variables by applying elastic net regression to representative subdata in place of the full sample to select variables. We combine the lists of selected variables from each subdata through ensemble techniques, using the frequency of selecting the variable across different ...
