Abstract
In this article, we study high-dimensional multivariate logistic regression models in which a common set of covariates is used to predict multiple binary outcomes simultaneously. Our work is primarily motivated from many biomedical studies with correlated multiple responses such as the cancer cell-line encyclopedia project. We assume that the underlying regression coefficient matrix is simultaneously low-rank and row-wise sparse. We propose an intuitively appealing selection and estimation framework based on marginal model likelihood, and we develop an efficient computational algorithm for inference. We establish a novel high-dimensional theory for this nonlinear multivariate regression. Our theory is general, allowing for potential correlations between the binary responses. We propose a new type of nuclear norm penalty using the smooth clipped absolute deviation, filling the gap in the related non-convex penalization literature. We theoretically demonstrate that the proposed approach improves estimation accuracy by considering multiple responses jointly through the proposed estimator when the underlying coefficient matrix is low-rank and row-wise sparse. In particular, we establish the non-asymptotic error bounds, and both rank and row support consistency of the proposed method. Moreover, we develop a consistent rule to simultaneously select the rank and row dimension of the coefficient matrix. Furthermore, we extend the proposed methods and theory to a joint Ising model, which accounts for the dependence relationships. In our analysis of both simulated data and the cancer cell line encyclopedia data, the proposed methods outperform the existing methods in better predicting responses.
