similar to: LASSO coefficients for a specific s

Hello, I have a question about the lars package. I am using this package to get the coefficients at a specific LASSO parameter s. data(diabetes) attach(diabetes) object <- lars(x,y,type="lasso") cvres<-cv.lars(x,y,K=10,fraction = seq(from = 0, to = 1, length = 100)) fits <- predict.lars(object, type="coefficients", s=0.1, mode="fraction") Can I assign

Hi, I know how to use LASSO for model selection based on the Cp criterion. I heard that we can also use cross validation as a criterion too. I used cv.lars to give me the lowest predicted error & fraction. But I'm short of a step to arrive at the number of variables to be included in the final model. How do we do that? Is it the predict.lars function? i tried >

Hi, I am writing to seek some guidance regarding using Lasso regression with the R package LARS. I have introductory statistics background but I am trying to learn more. Right now I am trying to duplicate the results in a paper for shRNA prediction "An accurate and interpretable model for siRNA efficacy prediction, Jean-Philippe Vert et. al, Bioinformatics" for a Bioinformatics project

Hi, all, I am using the lars package for lasso estimate. So I get a lasso fit first: lassofit = lars(x,y,type ="lasso",normalize=T, intercept=T) Then I want to get coefficient with respect to a certain value of \lambda (the tuning parameter), I know lars has three mode options c("step", "fraction", "norm"), but can I use the \lambda value instead

Dear list, I have been trying to apply a simple lasso regression on a 10-element vector, just to see how this method works so as to later implement it on larger datasets. I thus create an input vector x: * x=rnorm(10)* I add some noise * noise=runif(n=10, min=-0.1, max=0.1)* and I create a simple linear model which calculates my output vector y * y=2*x+1+noise* I then do

Hi, perhaps you can help me to find out, how to find the best Lambda in a LASSO-model. I have a feature selection problem with 150 proteins potentially predicting Cancer or Noncancer. With a lasso model fit.glm <- glmpath(x=as.matrix(X), y=target, family="binomial") (target is 0, 1 <- Cancer non cancer, X the proteins, numerical in expression), I get following path (PICTURE

Dear all, I have used following code but everytime I encounter a problem of not having coefficients for all the variables in the predictor set. # code rm(list=ls()) library(caret) # generating response and design matrix X<-matrix(rnorm(50*100),nrow=50) y<-rnorm(50*1) # Applying caret package con<-trainControl(method="cv",number=10) data<-NULL data<- train(X,y,

Dear All The problem is about regularization methods in multiple regression when the independent variables are collinear. A modified regularization method with two tuning parameters l1 and l2 and their product l1*l2 (Lambda 1 and Lambda 2) such that l1 takes care of ridge property and l2 takes care of LASSO property is proposed The proposed method is given

Hi all. Sorry for the long email. I have been trying to find someone local to work on this with me, without much luck. I went in to our local stats consulting service here, and the guy there told me that I already know more about model selection than he does. :-< He pointed me towards another professor that can perhaps help, but that prof is busy until mid-June, so I want to get as much

I'm using the package 'lars' in R with the following code: > library(lars) > set.seed(3) > n <- 1000 > x1 <- rnorm(n) > x2 <- x1+rnorm(n)*0.5 > x3 <- rnorm(n) > x4 <- rnorm(n) > x5 <- rexp(n) > y <- 5*x1 + 4*x2 + 2*x3 + 7*x4 + rnorm(n) > x <- cbind(x1,x2,x3,x4,x5) > cor(cbind(y,x)) y x1 x2

Dear R-users I'm trying to use lasso in lars package for subset regression, I have a large matrix of size 1000x100 and my aim is to select a subset k of the 100 variables. Is there any way in lars to fix the number k (i.e. to select the best 10 variables) library(lars) aa=lars(X,Y,type="lasso",max.steps=200) plot(aa,plottype="Cp") aa$RSS which.min(aa$RSS)

Hi All, I am trying to fit a piecewise lasso regression, but package Segmented does not work with Lars objects. Does any know of any package or implementation of piecewise lasso regression? Thanks, Lucas

I'm using R 2.2.0 on Windows. Doing some conversions of help files. Internal comments indicate that the Sd2Rd conversion is "Converted by Sd2Rd version 1.21." I'm converting .d -> .Rd .sgml -> .Rd using Sd2Rd, then checking by using Rdconv to convert .Rd back to .d or .sgml. Here are errors in some of the conversions. The most significant errors are in .Rd to .sgml.

Hi! This is my first time posting. I've read the general rules and guidelines, but please bear with me if I make some fatal error in posting. Anyway, I have a continuous response and 29 predictors made up of continuous variables and nominal and ordinal categorical variables. I'd like to do lasso on these, but I get an error. The way I am using "lars" doesn't allow for the

For "importance" it's probably best to stick with absolute values of coefficients, instead of value of the penalty parameter for which the coefficients changed to non-zero. Friedman skipped a lot of details on his rule ensemble in that talk, due to time constraint. In his implementation he was using his own algorithm, PathSeeker, for which paper and software are available on his

Hi all, I have a data set containing variables LOSS, GDP, HPI and UE. (I have attached it in case it is required). Having renamed the variables as l,g,h and u, I wish to run a Lasso Regression with l as the dependent variable and all the other 3 as the independent variables. data=read.table("data.txt", header=T) l=data$LOSS h=data$HPI u=data$UE g=data$GDP matrix=data.frame(l,g,h,u)

Dear R users: Recently, I learn to use penalized logistic regression. Two packages (penalized and glmnet) have the function of lasso. So I write these code. However, I got different results of coef. Can someone kindly explain. # lasso using penalized library(penalized) pena.fit2<-penalized(HRLNM,penalized=~CN+NoSus,lambda1=1,model="logistic",standardize=TRUE) pena.fit2

hello I tried to use lars() but neither with my own data nor with the sample data it works. I get in both cases the following error prompt: > data(diabetes) > par(mfrow=c(2,2)) > attach(diabetes) > x<-lars(x,y) Error in one %*% x : requires numeric matrix/vector arguments > x<-lars(x,y, type="lasso") Error in one %*% x : requires numeric matrix/vector arguments
