We consider the problem of simultaneous variable selection and estimation in additive partially linear Cox’s proportional hazards models with high-dimensional or ultra-high-dimensional covariates in the linear part. Under the sparse model assumption, we apply the smoothly clipped absolute...

We consider the problem of simultaneous variable selection and estimation in partially linear proportional hazards models when the number of covariates in the linear part diverges with the sample size. We apply the smoothly clipped absolute deviation (SCAD) penalty to select the significant...
