Adaptive estimation of the rank of the coefficient matrix in high-dimensional multivariate response regression models
高维多响应回归中系数矩阵秩的自适应估计
We consider the multivariate response regression problem with a regression coefficient matrix of low, unknown rank. In this setting, we analyze a new criterion for selecting the optimal reduced rank. This criterion differs notably from the one proposed in Bunea, She and Wegkamp (Ann. Statist. 39 (2011) 1282–1309) in that it does not require estimation of the unknown variance of the noise, nor does it depend on a delicate choice of a tuning parameter. We develop an iterative,…
