Abstract

Variable selection in high-dimensional data remains a critically important, yet challenging task, particularly when confronted with highly correlated features and outliers. In this paper, we propose a novel robust variable selection method via the weighted elastic-net multi-step screening procedure. Our proposed method is not only robust to heavy-tailed errors or high leverage points, but can also handle highly correlated covariates and high-dimensional data sets with $p>n$, where $p$ is the number of predictors and $n$ is the sample size. In addition, a multi-step iterative algorithm is introduced to obtain the proposed estimator. Finally, extensive numerical simulations and a real-world NASDAQ index tracking application are conducted to illustrate the merits of the proposed method. The results indicate that our proposed method has a better finite-sample performance than some existing methods when there exist highly correlated covariates and outliers in the high-dimensional linear regression model.
