Gaussian model selection with an unknown variance
未知方差下的高斯模型选择
Let Y be a Gaussian vector whose components are independent with a common unknown variance. We consider the problem of estimating the mean μ of Y by model selection. More precisely, we start with a collection $\mathcal{S}=\{S_{m},m\in\mathcal{M}\}$ of linear subspaces of ℝn and associate to each of these the least-squares estimator of μ on Sm. Then, we use a data driven penalized criterion in order to select one estimator among these. Our first objective is to analyze the…
