In POCRE: Penalized Orthogonal-Components Regression

Screen Variables Using Penalized Orthogonal-Components Regression (POCRE)

Description

Screen for a pre-specified number (i.e., maxvar) of covariates by constructing maxcmp components with POCRE. Each component will be constructed by selecting maxvar/macmp covariates which are most relevant to the response variable(s). Here POCRE selects covariates for their top relevance to the response variable(s) without penalization.

Usage

pocrescreen(y, x, maxvar=nrow(x), maxcmp=5, x.include=NULL,
            tol=1e-6, maxit=100)

Arguments

y	n*q matrix, values of q response variables (allow for multiple response variables).
x	n*p matrix, values of p predicting variables (excluding the intercept).
maxvar	maximum number of selected variables.
maxcmp	maximum number of components to be constructed.
x.include	a vector of indices indicating covariates which should always be included in the model (so not counted into selected maxvar covariates).
tol	tolerance of precision in iterations.
maxit	maximum number of iterations to be allowed.

Value

a vector of indices of selected covariates (excluding those in x.include).

Examples

data(simdata)
xx <- simdata[,-1]
yy <- simdata[,1]

# Screen for 50 covariates
sidx <- pocrescreen(yy,xx,maxvar=50)

# Screen for 50 additional covariates besides the first 10
xinc <- 1:10
sidx <- pocrescreen(yy,xx,maxvar=50,x.include=xinc)
sidx <- c(xinc,sidx)
