Efficiency for Regularization Parameter Selection in Penalized Likelihood Estimation of Misspecified Models
误设模型惩罚似然估计中正则化参数选择的效率
It has been shown that Akaike information criterion (AIC)-type criteria are asymptotically efficient selectors of the tuning parameter in nonconcave penalized regression methods under the assumption that the population variance is known or that a consistent estimator is available. We relax this assumption to prove that AIC itself is asymptotically efficient and we study its performance in finite samples. In classical regression, it is known that AIC tends to select overly…
