Sparsistency and agnostic inference in sparse PCA
稀疏主成分分析中的变量选择一致性与无真值假设推断
The presence of a sparse “truth” has been a constant assumption in the theoretical analysis of sparse PCA and is often implicit in its methodological development. This naturally raises questions about the properties of sparse PCA methods and how they depend on the assumption of sparsity. Under what conditions can the relevant variables be selected consistently if the truth is assumed to be sparse? What can be said about the results of sparse PCA without assuming a sparse and…
