In this paper, we derive non-asymptotic error bounds for the Lasso estimator when the penalty parameter for the estimator is chosen using $K$-fold cross-validation. Our bounds imply that the cross-validated Lasso estimator has nearly…

We apply the network Lasso to solve binary classification and clustering problems for network-structured data. To this end, we generalize ordinary logistic regression to non-Euclidean data with an intrinsic network structure. The resulting…

Analysis of non-asymptotic estimation error and structured statistical recovery based on norm regularized regression, such as Lasso, needs to consider four aspects: the norm, the loss function, the design matrix, and the noise model. This…

Popular regularizers with non-differentiable penalties, such as Lasso, Elastic Net, Generalized Lasso, or SLOPE, reduce the dimension of the parameter space by inducing sparsity or clustering in the estimators' coordinates. In this paper,…

LASSO regularization is a popular regression tool to enhance the prediction accuracy of statistical models by performing variable selection through the $\ell_1$ penalty, initially formulated for the linear model and its variants. In this…

In this paper, we investigate the degrees of freedom ($\dof$) of penalized $\ell_1$ minimization (also known as the Lasso) for linear regression models. We give a closed-form expression of the $\dof$ of the Lasso response. Namely, we show…

We discuss two new methods of recovery of sparse signals from noisy observation based on $\ell_1$- minimization. They are closely related to the well-known techniques such as Lasso and Dantzig Selector. However, these estimators come with…
