Tilted Correlation Screening Learning in High-Dimensional Data Analysis

<div><p>Statistical inference can be over optimistic and even misleading based on a selected model due to the uncertainty of the model selection procedure, especially in the high-dimensional data analysis. In this article, we propose a bootstrap-based tilted correlation screening learning (TCSL) algorithm to alleviate this uncertainty. The algorithm is inspired by the recently proposed variable selection method, TCS algorithm, which screens variables via tilted correlation. Our algorithm can reduce the prediction error and make the interpretation more reliable. The other gain of our algorithm is the reduced computational cost compared with the TCS algorithm when the dimension is large. Extensive simulation examples and the analysis of one real dataset are conducted to exhibit the good performance of our algorithm. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.</p>
