Estimating the regression coefficients in GGMs with lasso

Description

The function "lassoGGM" computes the lasso estimates of the regression coefficents in GGMs for constructing the test statistic.

Usage

lassoGGM(Data_mat)

Arguments

Data_mat

A n by p data matrix, where each row represents one observation

Details

The tuning parameter in the lasso regression is chosen as in Liu (2017).

Value

The estimated coefficient matrix by lasso

Note

Other estimators such as Dantzig selector or square-root lasso can also be used. See detailed discussion in Liu (2017) and Zhang (2017).
