Computation of Liu Tuning Parameter

Description

lamest computes the Liu tuning parameters provided in the literature. The tuning parameter estimates are based on

Usage

lamest(obj, ...)

Arguments

obj

An object of class liureg.

...

Not used in this implemetation.

Details

The lamest function computes the following tuning parameter estimates available in the literature.

lam.mm (Liu, 1993) \displaystyle{1-\hat{\sigma}^{2}\left(\frac{\sum\limits _{j=1}^{p}\frac{1}{\lambda_{j}\left(1+\lambda_{j}\right)}}{\sum\limits _{j=1}^{p}\frac{\hat{\alpha}_{j}^{2}}{\left(1+\lambda_{j}\right)^{2}}}\right)}
lam.CL (Liu, 1993) \displaystyle{1-\hat{\sigma}^{2}\left(\frac{\sum\limits _{j=1}^{p}\frac{1}{\left(1+\lambda_{j}\right)}}{\sum\limits _{j=1}^{p}\frac{\lambda_{j}\hat{\alpha}_{j}^{2}}{\left(1+\lambda_{j}\right)^{2}}}\right)}
lam.opt (Liu, 1993) \displaystyle{\frac{\sum\limits _{j=1}^{p}\left(\frac{\alpha_{j}^{2}-\sigma^{2}}{\left(1+\lambda_{j}\right)^{2}}\right)}{\sum\limits _{j=1}^{p}\left(\frac{\sigma^{2}+\lambda_{j}\alpha_{j}^{2}}{\lambda_{j}\left(1+\lambda_{j}\right)^{2}}\right)}}
lam.OK (Ozkale and Kaciranlar, 2007; Liu, 2011) \displaystyle{\frac{\sum\limits _{i=1}^{n}\frac{\tilde{e}_{i}}{1-g_{ii}}\left(\frac{\tilde{e}_{i}}{1-h_{1-ii}}-\frac{\hat{e}_{i}}{1-h_{ii}}\right)}{\sum\limits _{i=1}^{n}\left(\frac{\tilde{e}_{i}}{1-g_{ii}}-\frac{\hat{e}_{i}}{1-h_{ii}}\right)^{2}}} with \hat{e}_{i}=y_{i}-\mathbf{x}_{i}^{T}\left(\mathbf{X}^{T}\mathbf{X}-\mathbf{x}_{i}\mathbf{x}_{i}^{T}\right)^{-1}\left(\mathbf{X}^{T}\mathbf{y}-\mathbf{x}_{i}y_{i}\right) and \tilde{e}_{i}=y_{i}-\mathbf{x}_{i}^{T}\left(\mathbf{X}^{T}\mathbf{X}+\mathbf{I}-\mathbf{x}_{i}\mathbf{x}_{i}^{T}\right)^{-1}\left(\mathbf{X}^{T}\mathbf{y}-\mathbf{x}_{i}y_{i}\right) where g_{ii} and h_{ii} are the ith diagonal elements of \mathbf{G}=\mathbf{X}\left(\mathbf{X}^{T}\mathbf{X}+\mathbf{I}\right)^{-1}\mathbf{X}^{T} and \mathbf{H=}\mathbf{X}\left(\mathbf{X}^{T}\mathbf{X}\right)^{-1}\mathbf{X}^{T}, respectively.
lam.GCV This is the \lambda value corresponding to the minimum of the generalized cross-validition (GCV) values. The GCV is computed by \frac{\mathrm{SSR}_{\lambda}}{n-1-\mathrm{trace}\left(\mathbf{H}_{\lambda}\right)} where \mathrm{SSR}_{\lambda} is the residual sum of squares and \mathrm{trace}\left(\mathbf{H}_{\lambda}\right) is the trace of the hat matrix at corresponding value of \lambda from Liu regression.

Value

The return object is the Liu tuning parameter estimates based on the literature.
