  1. Notes: in scenario 3, group size “4/50” denotes that there are four none-zero coefficients embedded in a group with 50 predictors. The group size is 50. This is true for “4/20” and “4/4”. The optimal s0 = 0.02 for different group size settings. The slab scales, s1, are 1 in this scenario. In scenario 4 “8/20” denotes that there are 8 non-null groups among 20 groups. Each non-null group includs at least one non-zero coefficients. The optimal s0 = 0.02 for the three settings. In scenario 5, the optimal s0 are 0.02, 0.03, and 0.04 for different correlation coefficients, 0.0, 0.5, and 0.7 within group, respectively. The slab scales, s1, are 1 in this scenario 3, 4 and 5. Values in the parentheses are standard errors. “gsslasso” represents the proposed group spike-and-slab lasso cox
