Sparsity identification for high-dimensional partially linear model with measurement error.

In this article, we studied the identification of significant predictors in partially linear model in which some regressors are contaminated with random errors. Moreover, the dimension of parametric component is divergent and the regression coefficients are sparse. We applied difference technique to remove the nonparametric component for circumventing the selection of bandwidth, and constructed a bias-corrected shrinking estimator for the coefficient by using smoothly clipped absolute deviation (SCAD) penalty. Then, we derived the estimating and selecting consistency and established the asymptotic distribution for the identified significant estimators. Finally, Monte Carlo studies illustrate the performance of our approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
