Expected shortfall regression provides powerful tools for learning the relationship between a response variable and a set of covariates while exploring the heterogeneous effects of the covariates. In the health disparity research, for example, the lower/upper tail of the conditional distribution of a health-related outcome, given high-dimensional covariates, is often of importance. Under sparse models, we propose the lasso-penalized expected shortfall regression and establish non-asymptotic error bounds, depending explicitly on the sample size, dimension, and sparsity, for the proposed estimator. To perform statistical inference on a covariate of interest, we propose a debiased estimator and establish its asymptotic normality, from which asymptotically valid tests can be constructed. We illustrate the finite sample performance of the proposed method through numerical studies and a data application on health disparity.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.02695v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2307.02695v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"high-dimensional-expected-shortfall","repo_url":"https://github.com/shushuzh/es_highd","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
