On optimality of Bayesian testimation in the normal means problem
正态均值问题中贝叶斯检验与估计结合方法的最优性
We consider a problem of recovering a high-dimensional vector μ observed in white noise, where the unknown vector μ is assumed to be sparse. The objective of the paper is to develop a Bayesian formalism which gives rise to a family of l0-type penalties. The penalties are associated with various choices of the prior distributions πn(⋅) on the number of nonzero entries of μ and, hence, are easy to interpret. The resulting Bayesian estimators lead to a general thresholding rule…
