Broken adaptive ridge method for variable selection in generalized partly linear models with application to the coronary artery disease data
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Motivated by the CATHGEN data, we develop a new statistical method for simultaneous variable selection and parameter estimation in the context of generalized partly linear models for data with high-dimensional covariates. The method is referred to as the broken adaptive ridge (BAR) estimator, which is an approximation of the -penalized regression by iteratively performing reweighted squared -penalized regression. The generalized partly linear model extends the generalized linear model by incorporating a non-parametric component, allowing for the construction of a flexible model to capture various types of covariate effects. We employ the Bernstein polynomials as the sieve space to approximate the non-parametric functions so that our method can be implemented easily using the existing R packages. Extensive simulation studies suggest that the proposed method performs better than other commonly used penalty-based variable selection methods. We apply the method to the CATHGEN data with a binary response from a coronary artery disease study, which motivated our research, and obtained new findings in both high-dimensional genetic and low-dimensional non-genetic covariates.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
