Oracle Inequality for Sparse Trace Regression Models with Exponentialβ-mixing Errors

In applications involving,e.g.,panel data,images,genomics microarrays,etc.,trace regression models are useful tools.To address the high-dimensional issue of these applications,it is common to assume some sparsity property.For the case of the parameter matrix being simultaneously low rank and elements-wise sparse,we estimate the parameter matrix through the least-squares approach with the composite penalty combining the nuclear norm and the l1norm.We extend the existing analysis of the low-rank trace regression with i.i.d.errors to exponentialβ-mixing errors.The explicit convergence rate and the asymptotic properties of the proposed estimator are established.Simulations,as well as a real data application,are also carried out for illustration.
