predict.lars command for lasso regression: what are the "s" and "p" parameters?

In help(predict.lars) we can read that the parameter s is "a value, or vector of values, indexing the path. Its values depends on the mode= argument. By default (mode="step"), s should take on values between 0 and p (e.g., a step of 1.3 means .3 of…

Advice on implementing L1 regularisation in logistic model for feature selection

I am working on an academic project where the aim is to understand which features predict a binary outcome. I have therefore used a logistic model. However, there is a problem with colinearity as several of the features are highly correlated. I was…
