In this paper, we study the estimation and variable selection of the sufficient dimension reduction space for survival data via a new combination of <InlineEquation ID="IEq1"> <EquationSource Format="TEX">$$L_1$$</EquationSource> </InlineEquation> penalty and the refined outer product of gradient method (rOPG; Xia et al. in J R Stat Soc Ser B 64:363–410, <CitationRef CitationID="CR28">2002</CitationRef>), called SH-OPG...</citationref></equationsource></inlineequation>

A nonparametric procedure for quantile regression, or more generally nonparametric M-estimation, is proposed which is completely data-driven and adapts locally to the regularity of the regression function. This is achieved by considering in each point M-estimators over different local...

The weighted least absolute deviation (WLAD) regression estimation method and the adaptive least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) are combined to achieve robust parameter estimation and variable selection in regression simultaneously. Compared with the LAD-LASSO method, the...
