Classical adaptive lasso regression is known to possess the oracle properties; namely, it performs as well as if the correct submodel were known in advance. However, it requires consistent initial estimates of the regression coefficients, which are generally not available in high dimensional settings. In addition, none of the algorithms used to obtain the adaptive lasso estimators provide a valid measure of standard error. To overcome these drawbacks, some Bayesian approaches have been proposed to obtain the adaptive lasso and related estimators. In this paper, we consider a fully Bayesian treatment for the adaptive lasso that leads to a new Gibbs sampler with tractable full conditional posteriors. Through simulations and real data analyses, we compare the performance of the new Gibbs sampler with some of the existing Bayesian and non-Bayesian methods. Results show that the new approach performs well in comparison to the existing Bayesian and non-Bayesian approaches.
经典的自适应套索回归被认为具有最优性质,即它的表现与事先知道正确的子模型一样好。然而,它需要一致的回归系数初始估计,而在高维设置中,这些初始估计通常是不可用的。此外,用于获得自适应套索估计值的算法都没有提供有效的标准误差度量。为了克服这些缺点,已经提出了一些贝叶斯方法来获得自适应套索和相关的估计值。在本文中,我们考虑了自适应套索的完全贝叶斯处理方法,这导致了一个新的 Gibbs 采样器,具有可处理的完全条件后验。通过模拟和实际数据分析,我们比较了新 Gibbs 采样器与一些现有的贝叶斯和非贝叶斯方法的性能。结果表明,与现有的贝叶斯和非贝叶斯方法相比,新方法的表现良好。
