  报告摘要：Structured elastic net is a rather general and flexible technique of regularization and variable selection, which includes the elastic net, the smooth lasso and the spline lasso as special cases. We consider a fully Bayesian method to make statistical inference about it.  Main difficulty lies in that there exists an intractable term in the full conditional posterior of the tuning parameters, which makes ordinary MH algorithm unusable. We develop an exchange algorithm and a double MH sampler, respectively, to address this difficulty. We also consider an empirical posterior credible interval method with ``adaptively level'' for variable selection. The proposed methods are illustrated by the simulated examples, and applied to the diabetes and the biscuit dough datasets.
