Solution Paths for Large p Small n Problems

In this talk, I will introduce a new but very simple framework to solve the large p small n problems. The framework decomposes the data into pieces so that existing methods can be applied. We propose two separate paths to implement the framework. Our paths provide sufficient procedures for identifying informative variables sequentially. The paths are very general and we shall illustrate their efficacy via simulation and a real data set by using sufficient dimension reduction and variable selection methods.
