After Lasso: Store remaining variables as new dataframe (using R)
First of all, thank you very much for your interest and time. My question (using R):
To predict the yvar, I have run a lasso regression which reduced the set of xvariables from 736 to 30.
lasso.mod =glmnet(x,y,alpha=1)
cv.out =cv.glmnet…

I know that there dosens of similar questions/answers, and lots of papers. But please read till the end.
Non-statisticians tend to use stepwise regressions which is strongly argued by statisticians. This is stomething that I don't understand, but I…

logistic regression with 1L penalty and 10-fold crossvalidation
I'm trying to apply logistic regression with an L1-penalty on the training set. I need to use 10-fold cross-validation to find an optimal value of the penalty parameter. Can anyone tell me why I get the same results for the model with x1-x3 as for…

Why does the lasso here didn't provide me with zero coefficient?
I got the idea of implementing my version of deep feature selection is from the paper here,http://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007%2F978-3-319-16706-0_20
The basic idea of deep feature selection according to this paper is to add a one to one…

Determining regression equation from coefficients obtained by Lasso Logistic Regression in python?
I performed Lasso regression to first do categorical feature selection (parameter space had 900 features, they were reduced to 78 after Lasso), and then as a linear model to calculate certain response variable. I have the coefficients for the…

if the lasso is equivalent to linear regression with a laplace prior how can there be mass on sets with components at zero?
We are all familiar with the notion, well documented in the literature, that lasso optimization (for sake of simplicity confine attention here to the case of linear regression)
loss = || y - x b ||^2 + c || b ||
is equivalent to the linear model…

How does glmnet() handle with both penalized and unpenalized covariates?
Is it possible to do a lasso model with both penalized and un-penalized covariates? That is, I want to do an estimate with Y ~ gamma * X + beta * Z, where X is a n*p penalized features and Z a n*q un-penalized covariates of continues or factor…

Comparing different models using LOOCV method
I have to compare different models (OLS, BEST SUBSET, RIDGE, LASSO, PCR and PLS) using the LOO cross Validation (the criterion of comparison is the test-MSE).
Could someone explain me how to do it (possibly using an example dataset)?
I need the R…
