We consider efficient implementations of the generalized lasso dual path algorithm of Tibshirani and Taylor (2011). We first describe a generic approach that covers any penalty matrix D and any (full column rank) matrix X of predictor…

We study uniqueness in the generalized lasso problem, where the penalty is the $\ell_1$ norm of a matrix $D$ times the coefficient vector. We derive a broad result on uniqueness that places weak assumptions on the predictor matrix $X$ and…

Regularization is widely used in statistics and machine learning to prevent overfitting and gear solution towards prior information. In general, a regularized estimation problem minimizes the sum of a loss function and a penalty term. The…

The Lasso is a very well known penalized regression model, which adds an $L_{1}$ penalty with parameter $\lambda_{1}$ on the coefficients to the squared error loss function. The Fused Lasso extends this model by also putting an $L_{1}$…
