Abstract

In survival studies, current status data are frequently encountered when some individuals in a study are not successively observed. This paper considers the problem of simultaneous variable selection and parameter estimation in the high-dimensional continuous generalized linear model with current status data. We apply the penalized likelihood procedure with the smoothly clipped absolute deviation penalty to select significant variables and estimate the corresponding regression coefficients. With a proper choice of tuning parameters, the resulting estimator is shown to be a root n / p n -consistent estimator under some mild conditions. In addition, we show that the resulting estimator has the same asymptotic distribution as the estimator obtained when the true model is known. The finite sample behavior of the proposed estimator is evaluated through simulation studies and a real example.
