Quasi-likelihood bridge estimators for high-dimensional generalized linear models

AbstractIn this paper, we consider the variable selection and estimation for high-dimensional generalized linear models when the number of parameters diverges with the sample size. We propose a penalized quasi-likelihood function with the bridge penalty. The consistency and the Oracle property of the quasi-likelihood bridge estimators are obtained. Some simulations and a real data analysis are given to illustrate the performance of the proposed method.
