sample.bin: Generates covariate matrix X with correlated block of covariates and a binary random reponse depening on X through a logistic model

Description

The function sample.bin generates a random sample of n observations, composed of p predictors, collected in the n x p matrix X, and a binary response, in a vector Y of length n, thanks to a logistic model, where the response Y is generated as a Bernoulli random variable of parameter logit^{-1}(XB), the coefficients B are sparse. In addition, the covariate matrix X is composed of correlated blocks of predictors.

Usage

sample.bin(
  n,
  p,
  kstar,
  lstar,
  beta.min,
  beta.max,
  mean.H = 0,
  sigma.H = 1,
  sigma.F = 1,
  seed = NULL
)

Value

An object with the following attributes:

X

the (n x p) covariate matrix, containing the n observations for each of the p predictors.

Y

the (n) vector of Y observations.

proba

the n vector of Bernoulli parameters used to generate the response, in particular logit^{-1}(X %*% B).

sel

the index in (1:p) of covariates with non null coefficients in B.

nosel

the index in (1:p) of covariates with null coefficients in B.

B

the (n) vector of coefficients.

block.partition

a (p) vector indicating the block of each predictors in (1:kstar).

p

the number of covariates in the sample.

kstar

the number of underlying latent variables used to generates the covariate matrix X, kstar <= p. kstar is also the number of blocks in the covariate matrix (see details).

lstar

the number of blocks in the covariate matrix X that are used to generates the response Y, i.e. with non null coefficients in vector B, lstar <= kstar.

p0

the number of predictors with non null coefficients in B.

block.sel

a (lstar) vector indicating the index in (1:kstar) of blocks with predictors having non null coefficient in B.

beta.min

the inf bound for non null coefficients (see details).

beta.max

the sup bound for non null coefficients (see details).

mean.H

the mean of latent variables used to generates X.

sigma.H

the standard deviation of latent variables used to generates X.

sigma.F

the standard deviation of the noise added to latent variables used to generates X.

seed

an positive integer, if non NULL it fix the seed (with the command set.seed) used for random number generation.

Arguments

n

the number of observations in the sample.

p

the number of covariates in the sample.

kstar

the number of underlying latent variables used to generates the covariate matrix X, kstar <= p. kstar is also the number of blocks in the covariate matrix (see details).

lstar

the number of blocks in the covariate matrix X that are used to generates the response Y, i.e. with non null coefficients in vector B, lstar <= kstar.

beta.min

the inf bound for non null coefficients (see details).

beta.max

the sup bound for non null coefficients (see details).

mean.H

the mean of latent variables used to generates X.

sigma.H

the standard deviation of latent variables used to generates X.

sigma.F

the standard deviation of the noise added to latent variables used to generates X.

seed

an positive integer, if non NULL it fix the seed (with the command set.seed) used for random number generation.

Details

The set (1:p) of predictors is partitioned into kstar block. Each block k (k=1,...,kstar) depends on a latent variable H.k which are independent and identically distributed following a Gaussian distribution N(mean.H, sigma.H^2). Each columns X.j of the matrix X is generated as H.k + F.j for j in the block k, where F.j is independent and identically distributed gaussian noise N(0,sigma.F^2).

The coefficients B are generated as random between beta.min and beta.max on lstar blocks, randomly chosen, and null otherwise. The variables with non null coefficients are then relevant to explain the response, whereas the ones with null coefficients are not.

The response is generated as by drawing one observation of n different Bernoulli random variables of parameters logit^{-1}(XB).

The details of the procedure are developped by Durif et al. (2018).
