Penalized regression methods, most notably the lasso, are a popular approach to analyzing high-dimensional data. An attractive property of the lasso is that it naturally performs variable selection. An important area of concern, however, is…
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 $L_{1}$…

Inference for high-dimensional logistic regression models using penalized methods has been a challenging research problem. As an illustration, a major difficulty is the significant bias of the Lasso estimator, which limits its direct…

A reciprocal LASSO (rLASSO) regularization employs a decreasing penalty function as opposed to conventional penalization approaches that use increasing penalties on the coefficients, leading to stronger parsimony and superior model…
Using a multiplicative reparametrization, I show that a subclass of $L_q$ penalties with $q\leq 1$ can be expressed as sums of $L_2$ penalties. It follows that the lasso and other norm-penalized regression estimates may be obtained using a…
