Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator
Description
LASSO is a popular regularization scheme in linear regression in pursuit of sparsity in coefficient vector that has been widely used. The method can be used in feature selection in that given the regularization parameter, it first solves the problem and takes indices of estimated coefficients with the largest magnitude as meaningful features by solving
\textrm{min}_{\beta} ~ \frac{1}{2}\|X\beta-y\|_2^2 + \lambda \|\beta\|_1
where y
is response
in our method.
Usage
do.lasso(X, response, ndim = 2, lambda = 1)
Arguments
X |
an |

Value
a named Rdimtools
S3 object containing
- Y
an
(n\times ndim)
matrix whose rows are embedded observations.- featidx
a length-
ndim
vector of indices with highest scores.- projection
a
(p\times ndim)
whose columns are basis for projection.- algorithm

Examples
## generate swiss roll with auxiliary dimensions
## it follows reference example from LSIR paper.
set.seed(1)
n = 123
theta = runif(n)
h = runif(n)
t = (1+2*theta)*(3*pi/2)
X = array(0,c(n,10))
X[,1] = t*cos(t)
X[,2] = 21*h
X[,3] = t*sin(t)
X[,4:10] = matrix(runif(7*n), nrow=n)
## corresponding response vector
y = sin(5*pi*theta)+(runif(n)*sqrt(0.1))
## try different regularization parameters
out1 = do.lasso(X, y, lambda=0.1)
out2 = do.lasso(X, y, lambda=1)
out3 = do.lasso(X, y, lambda=10)
## visualize
opar <- par(no.readonly=TRUE)
par(mfrow=c(1,3))
plot(out1$Y, main="LASSO::lambda=0.1")
plot(out2$Y, main="LASSO::lambda=1")
plot(out3$Y, main="LASSO::lambda=10")
