We consider the group lasso penalty for the linear model. We note that the standard algorithm for solving the problem assumes that the model matrices in each group are orthonormal. Here we consider a more general penalty that blends 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 $L_{1}$…
