GLP_gs: GLP algorithm

Description

Giannone, Lenza and Primiceri (GLP) algorithm with/without adaptive burn-in Gibbs sampler. See paper Giannone, D., Lenza, M., & Primiceri, G. E. (2021) and Yang, Z., Khare, K., & Michailidis, G. (2024) for details.

Most of the codes are from https://github.com/bfava/IllusionOfIllusion with our modification to make it have adaptive burn-in Gibbs sampler, and some debugs.

Usage

GLP_gs(
  Y,
  X,
  a = 1,
  b = 1,
  A = 1,
  B = 1,
  Max_burnin = 10,
  nmc = 5000,
  adaptive_burn_in = TRUE
)

Value

A list with betahat: predicted beta hat from majority voting, and Gibbs_res: 5000 samples of beta, q and lambda^2 from Gibbs sampler.

Arguments

Y

A (centered) vector.

X

A (centered in column) matrix.

a

shape parameter for marginal of q; default=1.

b

shape parameter for marginal of q; default=1.

A

shape parameter for marginal of R^2; default=1.

B

shape parameter for marginal of R^2; default=1.

Max_burnin

Maximum burn-in (in 100 steps) for adaptive burn-in Gibbs sampler. Minimum value is 10, corresponding to 1000 hard burn-insteps. Default=10.

nmc

Number of MCMC samples. Default=5000.

adaptive_burn_in

Logical. If TRUE, use adaptive burn-in Gibbs sampler; If false, use fixed burn-in with burn-in = Max_burnin. Default=TRUE.

Examples

## A toy example is given below to save your time, which will still take ~10s. 
## The full example can be run to get BETTER results, which will take more than 80s, 
## by letting nmc=5000 (default).

n = 30;
p = n;

beta1 = rep(0.1, p);
beta2 = c(rep(0.2, p / 2), rep(0, p / 2));
beta3 = c(rep(0.15, 3 * p / 4), rep(0, ceiling(p / 4)));
beta4 = c(rep(1, p / 4), rep(0, ceiling(3 * p / 4)));
beta5 = c(rep(3, ceiling(p / 20)), rep(0 , 19 * p / 20));
betas = list(beta1, beta3, beta2, beta4, beta5);

set.seed(123);
X = matrix(rnorm(n * p), n, p);
Y = c(X %*% betas[[1]] + rnorm(n));
