conf_prec {bvhar}

Evaluate the Sparsity Estimation Based on Precision

Description

This function computes precision for sparse element of the true coefficients given threshold.

Usage

conf_prec(x, y, ...)

## S3 method for class 'summary.bvharsp'
conf_prec(x, y, truth_thr = 0, ...)

Arguments

x

summary.bvharsp object.

y

True inclusion variable.

...

not used

truth_thr

Threshold value when using non-sparse true coefficient matrix. By default, 0 for sparse matrix.

Details

If the element of the estimate \hat\Phi is smaller than some threshold, it is treated to be zero. Then the precision is computed by

precision = \frac{TP}{TP + FP}

where TP is true positive, and FP is false positive.

Value

Precision value in confusion table
