New research explores variable selection in high-dimensional networks

A new research paper explores methods for selecting relevant variables in high-dimensional networks, particularly when the underlying model might be misspecified. The study demonstrates how the ridge parameter impacts mean squared error, leading to lower test variance and more comprehensive neighborhood identification. It connects these findings to machine learning concepts like double descent, suggesting that the volume of the model space should be considered in penalties for accurate neighborhood selection in models with numerous parameters.

    High-dimensional networks and mean squared error for possibly misspecified models

    arXiv:2608.13171v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: To avoid missing important variables and their connections in networks, more and more variables are included in network analysis. Here we show that in a setting with many more parameters than observations (high-dimensional) it is po…
