We propose a new method for supervised learning, especially suited to wide data where the number of features is much greater than the number of observations. The method combines the lasso ($\ell_1$) sparsity penalty with a quadratic penalty…

The sparse group lasso is a high-dimensional regression technique that is useful for problems whose predictors have a naturally grouped structure and where sparsity is encouraged at both the group and individual predictor level. In this…

Inferring network structures remains an interesting question for its importance on the understanding and controlling collective dynamics of complex systems. The existing shrinking methods such as Lasso-type estimation can not suitably…
