An Empirical Bayes Approach for High Dimensional Classification
We propose an empirical Bayes estimator based on Dirichlet process mixture model for estimating the sparse normalized mean difference, which could be directly applied to the high dimensional linear classification. In theory, we build a bridge to connect the estimation error of the mean difference and the misclassification error, also provide sufficient conditions of sub-optimal classifiers and optimal classifiers. In implementation, a variational Bayes algorithm is developed to compute the posterior efficiently and could be parallelized to deal with the ultra-high dimensional case.
