ridgeGLMmultiT: Multi-targeted ridge estimation of generalized linear models.

In porridge: Ridge-Type Penalized Estimation of a Potpourri of Models

Multi-targeted ridge estimation of generalized linear models.

Description

Function that evaluates the multi-targeted ridge estimator of the regression parameter of generalized linear models.

Usage

ridgeGLMmultiT(Y, X, U=matrix(ncol=0, nrow=length(Y)), 
               lambdas, targetMat, model="linear", 
               minSuccDiff=10^(-10), maxIter=100)

Arguments

Y	A numeric being the response vector.
X	The design matrix of the penalized covariates. The number of rows should match the number of elements of Y.
U	The design matrix of the unpenalized covariates. The number of rows should match the number of elements of Y.
lambdas	An all-positive numeric, vector of penalty parameters, one per target.
targetMat	A matrix with targets for the regression parameter as columns.
model	A character, either "linear" and "logistic" (a reference to the models currently implemented), indicating which generalized linear model model instance is to be fitted.
minSuccDiff	A numeric, the minimum distance between the loglikelihoods of two successive iterations to be achieved. Used only if model="logistic".
maxIter	A numeric specifying the maximum number of iterations. Used only if model="logistic".

Details

This function finds the maximizer of the following penalized loglikelihood: \mathcal{L}( \mathbf{Y}, \mathbf{X}; \boldsymbol{\beta}) - \frac{1}{2} \sum_{k=1}^K \lambda_k \| \boldsymbol{\beta} - \boldsymbol{\beta}_{k,0} \|_2^2, with loglikelihood \mathcal{L}( \mathbf{Y}, \mathbf{X}; \boldsymbol{\beta}), response \mathbf{Y}, design matrix \mathbf{X}, regression parameter \boldsymbol{\beta}, penalty parameter \lambda, and the k-th shrinkage target \boldsymbol{\beta}_{k,0}. For more details, see van Wieringen, Binder (2020).

Value

The ridge estimate of the regression parameter.

Examples

# set the sample size
n <- 50

# set the true parameter
betas <- (c(0:100) - 50) / 20

# generate covariate data
X <- matrix(rnorm(length(betas)*n), nrow=n)

# sample the response
probs <- exp(tcrossprod(betas, X)[1,]) / (1 + exp(tcrossprod(betas, X)[1,]))
Y     <- numeric()
for (i in 1:n){
    Y <- c(Y, sample(c(0,1), 1, prob=c(1-probs[i], probs[i])))
}

# set the penalty parameter
lambdas <- c(1,3)

# estimate the logistic regression parameter
# bHat <- ridgeGLMmultiT(Y, X, lambdas, model="logistic",
#                       targetMat=cbind(betas/2, rnorm(length(betas))))
