  1. 1. Regularization Methods and High Dimensional Data: A Comparative Study Based on Frequentist and Bayesian Methods

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Markus Gerholm; Johan Sörstadius; [2024]
    Keywords : Linear regression; high dimensional data; regularization; Bayesian methods; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : As the amount of high dimensional data becomes increasingly accessible and common, the need for reliable methods to combat problems such as overfitting and multicollinearity increases. Models need to be able to manage large data sets where predictor variables often outnumber the amount of observations. READ MORE
