In the last decade several estimators have been proposed that enforce the grouping property. A regularized estimate exhibits the grouping property if it selects groups of highly correlated predictor rather than selecting one representative.

Some candidate genes have been robustly reported to be associated with complex traits, such as the fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene on body mass index (BMI), and the fibroblast growth factor 5 (FGF5) gene on blood pressure levels.

Probabilistic solar power forecasting has been critical in Southern Africa because of major shortages of power due to climatic changes and other factors over the past decade. This paper discusses Gaussian process regression (GPR) coupled with core vector

Fast identification of biological pathways associated with a quantitative trait using group lasso with overlaps. [PDF]
Where causal SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) tend to accumulate within biological pathways, the incorporation of prior pathways information into a statistical model is expected to increase the power to detect true associations in a genetic ...

Regularized Ordinal Regression and the ordinalNet R Package
Regularization techniques such as the lasso (Tibshirani 1996) and elastic net (Zou and Hastie 2005) can be used to improve regression model coefficient estimation and prediction accuracy, as well as to perform variable selection.

Feature Selection Guided by Structural Information [PDF]
In generalized linear regression problems with an abundant number of features, lasso-type regularization which imposes an l1-constraint on the regression coefficients has become a widely established technique.

An Application of High-Dimensional Statistics to Predictive Modeling of Grade Variability
The economic viability of a mining project depends on its efficient exploration, which requires a prediction of worthwhile ore in a mine deposit. In this work, we apply the so-called LASSO methodology to estimate mineral concentration within unexplored ...

We propose a generalization of the lasso that allows the model coefficients to vary as a function of a general set of some prespecified modifying variables. These modifiers might be variables such as gender, age, or time. The paradigm is quite general, with each lasso coefficient modified by a sparse linear function of the modifying variables Z.

Salvage decision-making based on carbon following an eastern spruce budworm outbreak
Forest disturbances, such as an eastern spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana) outbreak, impact the strength and persistence of forest carbon sinks. Salvage harvests are a typical management response to widespread tree mortality, but the decision to ...
