L1-Regularized Least Squares for Support Recovery of High Dimensional Single Index Models with Gaussian Designs

It is known that for a certain class of single index models (SIMs) $Y = f(\boldsymbol{X}_{p \times 1}^\intercal\boldsymbol{\beta}_0, \varepsilon)$, support recovery is impossible when $\boldsymbol{X} \sim \mathcal{N}(0, \mathbb{I}_{p \times p})$ and a model complexity adjusted sample size is below a critical threshold. Recently, optimal algorithms based on Sliced Inverse Regression (SIR) were suggested. These algorithms work provably under the assumption that the design $\boldsymbol{X}$ comes from an i.i.d. Gaussian distribution. In the present paper we analyze algorithms based on covariance screening and least squares with $L_1$ penalization (i.e. LASSO) and demonstrate that they can also enjoy optimal (up to a scalar) rescaled sample size in terms of support recovery, albeit under slightly different assumptions on $f$ and $\varepsilon$ compared to the SIR based algorithms. Furthermore, we show more generally, that LASSO succeeds in recovering the signed support of $\boldsymbol{\beta}_0$ if $\boldsymbol{X} \sim \mathcal{N}(0, \boldsymbol{\Sigma})$, and the covariance $\boldsymbol{\Sigma}$ satisfies the irrepresentable condition. Our work extends existing results on the support recovery of LASSO for the linear model, to a more general class of SIMs.
