摘要:

In this paper, instead of the single response model, the multiple response regression model is considered. In addition to the sparsity assumption, it is future assumed that these multiple responses share the similar active variables which are selected from a candidate set. The goal is to recover the union of the sets of active variables (supports) for each individual response. Here Bayesian variable selection methods are adopted by introducing two nested sets of binary indicator variables. The first set of indicator variables is used to denote whether variables are active for any of the response vectors. The second set of indicator variables is associated with both predictor variables and responses, and each indicator is used to indicate whether the corresponding variable is active for a particular response vector. Thus to recovery the union of the supports can be solved based on the posterior samples of these two sets of indicator variables. Several MCMC algorithms are proposed for posterior sampling and the median probability criterion is used for posterior inference. The simulation results show that the proposed Bayesian methods outperform the related Lasso type methods. In addition to the simulation studies, the performances of the proposed Bayesian methods are also illustrated by real examples in image representation.
