Abstract
Elemental sets are used to produce trial estimates b of the regression coefficients β . If b0 minimizes ∥ b - β ∥ among all elemental fits b, then ∥ b0 - β ∥ = OP (n- 1), regardless of the criterion used. For any estimator bA, ∥ bA - β ∥ is at best OP (n- 1 / 2) . Hence restricting fits to elemental introduces asymptotically negligible error.
