Inference for Support Vector Regression under 鈩�1 Regularization
蝌蚪网 Papers and Proceedings
(pp. 611–15)
Abstract
We provide large-sample distribution theory for support vector regression (SVR) with 鈩�1-norm along with error bars for the SVR regression coefficients. Although a classical Wald confidence interval obtains from our theory, its implementation inherently depends on the choice of a tuning parameter that scales the variance estimate and thus the width of the error bars. We address this shortcoming by further proposing an alternative large-sample inference method based on the inversion of a novel test statistic that displays competitive power properties and does not depend on the choice of a tuning parameter.Citation
