Résumé

This paper is dedicated to the study of an estimator of the generalized Hoeffding decomposition. We build such an estimator using an empirical Gram-Schmidt approach and derive a consistency rate in a large dimensional setting. We then apply a greedy algorithm with these previous estimators to a sensitivity analysis. We also establish the consistency of this L2-boosting under sparsity assumptions of the signal to be analyzed. The paper concludes with numerica l experiments, that demonstrate the low computational cost of our method, as well as its efficiency on the standard benchmark of sensitivity analysis.
