High-dimensional empirical likelihood inference

Jinyuan Chang, Song Xi Chen, Cheng Yong Tang +1

High-dimensional statistical inference with general estimating equations are challenging and remain less explored. In this paper, we study two problems in the area: confidence set…

A new scope of penalized empirical likelihood with high-dimensional estimating equations

Jinyuan Chang, Cheng Yong Tang, Tong Tong Wu

Statistical methods with empirical likelihood (EL) are appealing and effective especially in conjunction with estimating equations through which useful data information can be adap…

The MM Alternative to EM

Tong Tong Wu, Kenneth Lange

The EM algorithm is a special case of a more general algorithm called the MM algorithm. Specific MM algorithms often have nothing to do with missing data. The first M step of an MM…

Multicategory vertex discriminant analysis for high-dimensional data

Tong Tong Wu, Kenneth Lange

In response to the challenges of data mining, discriminant analysis continues to evolve as a vital branch of statistics. Our recently introduced method of vertex discriminant analy…

Coordinate descent algorithms for lasso penalized regression

Tong Tong Wu, Kenneth Lange

Imposition of a lasso penalty shrinks parameter estimates toward zero and performs continuous model selection. Lasso penalized regression is capable of handling linear regression p…
