Contents
- Linear regression model and least squares
- Penalization with lasso, BIC,
- sparsity
- Convergence rates with respect to the mean squared prediction error and the mean squared error
- lower bounds

Qualification Goals
The students shall
- acquire theoretical knowledge of current research in the field of high-dimensional statistics,
- get to know important algorithms and their functionality in the programming language R,
- practice mathematical working methods (development of mathematical intuition and its formal justification, training of abstraction, proof methods),
- improve their oral communication skills in the recitation class by practicing free speech in front of an audience and during discussion.
