similar to: lasso/lars error

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 all I am using lars package to do lasso in R. I dont undesrtand what max.steps do?and how I can understand from the outputs to obtain the last steps in this packagethanks for your helpbest [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

When plotting a lars object, I cannot find a way to plot solid lines. Even when the arguments breaks=F and lty="solid" are used, the vertical lines at the break points do not plot but asterisks indicating the breaks still plot as part of each path leaving solid lines broken up by asterisks at the break points. I'm using the following code. larsfit <-

Using the small reproducible example below, I'd like to know if one can somehow use the matrix "sig" (defined below) to add a black outline (with lwd=2) to all pixels with a corresponding value of 1 in the matrix 'sig'? So for example, in the ggplot2 plot below, the pixel located at [1,3] would be outlined by a black square since the value at sig[1,3] == 1. This is my first

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

Hi, I am interested in a modification to LARS that allows for positive-only constraints in the variables (with details about how to implement this as described in section 3.4 of the Efron et al (2003) LARS paper). Before I dive into the "lars" package code myself, I was wondering if anyone knew of a version where this is available, or if another package that I have not found can do

Dear All, I am using lars package written by Dr. Trevor Hastie, the version is lars_0.9-5 downloaded from cran. When I ran the diabetes example data attached in package, I found that the beta outputs from different machines are different. The difference is only about 10^-11 to 10^-12, some friends suggested that it possibly is a machine precision problem. But I check the machine numerical

We have been using Least Angle Regression (lars) to help identify predictors in models where the outcome is continuous. To do so we have been relying on the lars package. Theoretically, it should be possible to use the lars procedure within a general linear model (glm) framework - we are particular interested in a logistic regression model. Does anyone have examples of using lars with logistic

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)

Dear useRs (called Frank Harrell, most likely), after having preached for years to my medical colleagues to be cautious with stepwise selection procedures, they chanted back asking for an alternative when using mixed models. There is a half dozen laXXX packages around for all types of linear models, but as far I see there is none for mixed models such as lme. Even boot.stepAIC (which I

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)

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 Eric, you can use an annotate-layer, eg ind<-which(sig>0,arr.ind = T) ggplot(m1.melted, aes(x = Month, y = Site, fill = Concentration), autoscale = FALSE, zmin = -1 * zmax1, zmax = zmax1) + geom_tile() + coord_equal() + scale_fill_gradient2(low = "darkred", mid = "white", high = "darkblue",

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

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

In the package lasso2, there is a Prostate Data. To find coefficients in the prostate cancer example we could impose L1 constraint on the parameters. code is: data(Prostate) p.mean <- apply(Prostate, 5,mean) pros <- sweep(Prostate, 5, p.mean, "-") p.std <- apply(pros, 5, var) pros <- sweep(pros, 5, sqrt(p.std),"/") pros[, "lpsa"] <-

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

Hello, I'm trying to select features of cetain numbers(like 100 out of 1000) via LASSO, based on multinomial model, however, it seems the glmnet package provides a very sparse estimation of coefficients(most of coefficients are 0), which selects very few number of variables, like only 10, based on my easy dataset. I try to connect the choice of lambda to the selecting

I also hope to get the code of using lasso method in the cox model.Could you please send me one? Thank you so much!!!
