Single index models provide an effective dimension reduction tool in regression, especially for high dimensional data, by projecting a general multivariate predictor onto a direction vector. We propose a novel single-index model for regression models where metric space-valued random object responses are coupled with multivariate Euclidean predictors. The responses in this regression model include complex, non-Euclidean data, including covariance matrices, graph Laplacians of networks, and univariate probability distribution functions among other complex objects that lie in abstract metric spaces. Frechet regression has provided an approach for modeling the conditional mean of such random objects given multivariate Euclidean vectors, but it does not provide for regression parameters such as slopes or intercepts, since the metric space-valued responses are not amenable to linear operations. We show here that for the case of multivariate Euclidean predictors, the parameters that define a single index and associated projection vector can be used to substitute for the inherent absence of parameters in Frechet regression. Specifically, we derive the asymptotic consistency of suitable estimates of these parameters subject to an identifiability condition. Consistent estimation of the link function of the single index Frechet regression model is obtained through local Frechet regression. We demonstrate the finite sample performance of estimation for the proposed single index Frechet regression model through simulation studies, including the special cases of probability distributions and graph adjacency matrices. The method is also illustrated for resting-state functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data from the ADNI study.

With the availability of more non-euclidean data objects, statisticians are faced with the task of developing appropriate statistical methods. For regression models in which the predictors lie in $R^p$ and the response variables are situated in a met ric space, conditional Frechet means can be used to define the Frechet regression function. Global and local Frechet methods have recently been developed for modeling and estimating this regression function as extensions of multiple and local linear regression, respectively. This paper expands on these methodologies by proposing the Frechet Single Index (FSI) model and utilizing local Frechet along with $M$-estimation to estimate both the index and the underlying regression function. The method is illustrated by simulations for response objects on the surface of the unit sphere and through an analysis of human mortality data in which lifetable data are represented by distributions of age-of-death, viewed as elements of the Wasserstein space of distributions.
This paper investigates the high-dimensional linear regression with highly correlated covariates. In this setup, the traditional sparsity assumption on the regression coefficients often fails to hold, and consequently many model selection procedures do not work. To address this challenge, we model the variations of covariates by a factor structure. Specifically, strong correlations among covariates are explained by common factors and the remaining variations are interpreted as idiosyncratic components of each covariate. This leads to a factor-adjusted regression model with both common factors and idiosyncratic components as covariates. We generalize the traditional sparsity assumption accordingly and assume that all common factors but only a small number of idiosyncratic components contribute to the response. A Bayesian procedure with a spike-and-slab prior is then proposed for parameter estimation and model selection. Simulation studies show that our Bayesian method outperforms its lasso analogue, manifests insensitivity to the overestimates of the number of common factors, pays a negligible price in the no correlation case, and scales up well with increasing sample size, dimensionality and sparsity. Numerical results on a real dataset of U.S. bond risk premia and macroeconomic indicators lend strong support to our methodology.
This paper introduces and analyzes a stochastic search method for parameter estimation in linear regression models in the spirit of Beran and Millar (1987). The idea is to generate a random finite subset of a parameter space which will automatically contain points which are very close to an unknown true parameter. The motivation for this procedure comes from recent work of Duembgen, Samworth and Schuhmacher (2011) on regression models with log-concave error distributions.

$ell_1$-penalized quantile regression is widely used for analyzing high-dimensional data with heterogeneity. It is now recognized that the $ell_1$-penalty introduces non-negligible estimation bias, while a proper use of concave regularization may lea d to estimators with refined convergence rates and oracle properties as the signal strengthens. Although folded concave penalized $M$-estimation with strongly convex loss functions have been well studied, the extant literature on quantile regression is relatively silent. The main difficulty is that the quantile loss is piecewise linear: it is non-smooth and has curvature concentrated at a single point. To overcome the lack of smoothness and strong convexity, we propose and study a convolution-type smoothed quantile regression with iteratively reweighted $ell_1$-regularization. The resulting smoothed empirical loss is twice continuously differentiable and (provably) locally strongly convex with high probability. We show that the iteratively reweighted $ell_1$-penalized smoothed quantile regression estimator, after a few iterations, achieves the optimal rate of convergence, and moreover, the oracle rate and the strong oracle property under an almost necessary and sufficient minimum signal strength condition. Extensive numerical studies corroborate our theoretical results.
Labeling patients in electronic health records with respect to their statuses of having a disease or condition, i.e. case or control statuses, has increasingly relied on prediction models using high-dimensional variables derived from structured and u nstructured electronic health record data. A major hurdle currently is a lack of valid statistical inference methods for the case probability. In this paper, considering high-dimensional sparse logistic regression models for prediction, we propose a novel bias-corrected estimator for the case probability through the development of linearization and variance enhancement techniques. We establish asymptotic normality of the proposed estimator for any loading vector in high dimensions. We construct a confidence interval for the case probability and propose a hypothesis testing procedure for patient case-control labelling. We demonstrate the proposed method via extensive simulation studies and application to real-world electronic health record data.
