Abstract: We propose a new empirical Bayes approach for inference in the pggn normal linear model. The novelty is the use of data in the prior in two ways, for centering and regularization. Under suitable sparsity assumptions, we establish a variety of concentration rate results for the empirical Bayes posterior distribution, relevant for both estimation and model selection. Computation is straightforward and fast, and simulation results demonstrate the strong finite-sample performance of the empirical Bayes model selection procedure.
