Hierarchical testing of variable importance
变量重要性的层级检验
A frequently encountered challenge in high-dimensional regression is the detection of relevant variables. Variable selection suffers from instability and the power to detect relevant variables is typically low if predictor variables are highly correlated. When taking the multiplicity of the testing problem into account, the power diminishes even further. To gain power and insight, it can be advantageous to look for influence not at the level of individual variables but…
