This is a new version of glmnet, that incorporates some bug fixes and speedups. * a new convergence criterion which which offers 10x or more speedups for saturated fits (mainly effects logistic, Poisson and Cox) * one can now predict directly from a cv.object - see the help files for cv.glmnet and predict.cv.glmnet * other new methods are deviance() for "glmnet" and coef() for

glmnet_1.2 has been uploaded to CRAN. This is a major upgrade, with the following additional features: * poisson family, with dense or sparse x * Cox proportional hazards family, for dense x * wide range of cross-validation features. All models have several criteria for cross-validation. These include deviance, mean absolute error, misclassification error and "auc" for logistic or

We have submitted glmnet_1.6 to CRAN This version has an improved convergence criterion, and it also uses a variable screening algorithm that dramatically reduces the time to convergence (while still producing the exact solutions). The speedups in some cases are by a factors of 20 to 50, depending on the particular problem and loss function. See our paper

SoftImpute is a new package for matrix completion - i.e. for imputing missing values in matrices. SoftImpute was written by myself and Rahul Mazumder. softImpute uses uses squared-error loss with nuclear norm regularization - one can think of it as the "lasso" for matrix approximation - to find a low-rank approximation to the observed entries in the matrix. This low-rank approximation

Least Angle Regression software: LARS "Least Angle Regression" ("LAR") is a new model selection algorithm; a useful and less greedy version of traditional forward selection methods. LAR is described in detail in a paper by Brad Efron, Trevor Hastie, Iain Johnstone and Rob Tibshirani, soon to appear in the Annals of Statistics. The paper, as well as R and Splus packages, are

We have uploaded to CRAN the first version of glmpath, which fits the L1 regularization path for generalized linear models. The lars package fits the entire piecewise-linear L1 regularization path for the lasso. The coefficient paths for L1 regularized glms, however, are not piecewise linear. glmpath uses convex optimization - in particular predictor-corrector methods- to fit the
