In high-dimensional data analysis, feature selection becomes one effective means for dimension reduction, which proceeds with parameter estimation. Concerning accuracy of selection and estimation, we study nonconvex constrained and regularized likelihoods in the presence of nuisance parameters....

High-dimensional feature selection has become increasingly crucial for seeking parsimonious models in estimation. For selection consistency, we derive one necessary and sufficient condition formulated on the notion of degree of separation. The minimal degree of separation is necessary for any...

In high-dimensional regression, grouping pursuit and feature selection have their own merits while complementing each other in battling the curse of dimensionality. To seek a parsimonious model, we perform simultaneous grouping pursuit and feature selection over an arbitrary undirected graph...
