For multivariate nonparametric regression models, existing variable selection methods with penalization require high …-dimensional nonparametric approximations in objective functions. When the dimension is high, none of methods with penalization in the literature … proposed to make existing methods feasible for selection with no need of nonparametric approximation. Selection consistency can …
