Using auxiliary information in statistical function estimation

Sergey Tarima, Dmitri Pavlov (2006)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In many practical situations sample sizes are not sufficiently large and estimators based on such samples may not be satisfactory in terms of their variances. At the same time it is not unusual that some auxiliary information about the parameters of interest is available. This paper considers a method of using auxiliary information for improving properties of the estimators based on a current sample only. In particular, it is assumed that the information is available as a number of estimates...

The LASSO estimator: Distributional properties

Rakshith Jagannath, Neelesh S. Upadhye (2018)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) is a popular technique for simultaneous estimation and model selection. There have been a lot of studies on the large sample asymptotic distributional properties of the LASSO estimator, but it is also well-known that the asymptotic results can give a wrong picture of the LASSO estimator's actual finite-sample behaviour. The finite sample distribution of the LASSO estimator has been previously studied for the special case of...
