Optimal subdata selection for linear model selection
share
If the assumed model does not accurately capture the underlying structure of the data, a statistical method is likely to yield sub-optimal results, and so model selection is crucial in order to conduct any statistical analysis. However, in case of massive datasets, the selection of an appropriate model from a large pool of candidates becomes computationally challenging, and limited research has been conducted on data selection for model selection. In this study, we conduct subdata selection based on the A-optimality criterion, allowing to perform model selection on a smaller subset of the data. We evaluate our approach based on the probability of selecting the best model and on the estimation efficiency through simulation experiments and two real data applications.
