  2. Shrinkage (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrinkage_(statistics)

    In statistics, shrinkage is the reduction in the effects of sampling variation. In regression analysis , a fitted relationship appears to perform less well on a new data set than on the data set used for fitting. [ 1 ]

  3. Estimation of covariance matrices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimation_of_covariance...

    This can be done by cross-validation, or by using an analytic estimate of the shrinkage intensity. The resulting regularized estimator (+ ()) can be shown to outperform the maximum likelihood estimator for small samples. For large samples, the shrinkage intensity will reduce to zero, hence in this case the shrinkage estimator will be identical ...

  4. Least-angle regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least-angle_regression

    Standardized coefficients shown as a function of proportion of shrinkage. In statistics, least-angle regression (LARS) is an algorithm for fitting linear regression models to high-dimensional data, developed by Bradley Efron, Trevor Hastie, Iain Johnstone and Robert Tibshirani.

  5. Lasso (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lasso_(statistics)

    In statistics and machine learning, lasso (least absolute shrinkage and selection operator; also Lasso, LASSO or L1 regularization) [1] is a regression analysis method that performs both variable selection and regularization in order to enhance the prediction accuracy and interpretability of the resulting statistical model.

  6. Empirical Bayes method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empirical_Bayes_method

    Empirical Bayes methods can be seen as an approximation to a fully Bayesian treatment of a hierarchical Bayes model.. In, for example, a two-stage hierarchical Bayes model, observed data = {,, …,} are assumed to be generated from an unobserved set of parameters = {,, …,} according to a probability distribution ().

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_out_the_clock

    In sports strategy, running out the clock (also known as running down the clock, stonewalling, killing the clock, chewing the clock, stalling, time-wasting (or timewasting) or eating clock [1]) is the practice of a winning team allowing the clock to expire through a series of preselected plays, either to preserve a lead or hasten the end of a one-sided contest.
