报告摘要：In many applications, the number of the important predictors or features may exceeds the sample size. To address the problem, combining the square root lasso and the structured fused lasso, we propose a new regularization and variable selection technique called the weighted structured square-root fused lasso for high-dimensional linear regression models, in which the regression coefficients are unnecessarily too sparse but the specific structures of which are sparse. A key feature of the proposed method is that the reasonable regularization parameters are independent of the unknown noise level. We establish some nonasymptotic error bounds of the estimation and the prediction, and show that the proposed method can identify the signs of the structured regression coefficients correctly with very high probability, under some mild conditions. By means of the ADMM (alternating direction method of multipliers) algorithm, we provide a computational approach to obtain the estimator. Simulated examples with different structure of the true regression coefficients demonstrate the remarkable performance of the proposed method in estimation, variable selection, and prediction. We finally apply the proposed method to a dataset of expression quantitative trait locus.‘’
