Differential geometric LARS via cyclic coordinate descent method

2012

We address the problem of how to compute the coefficient path implicitly defined by the differential geometric LARS (dgLARS) method in a high-dimensional setting. Although the geometrical theory developed to define the dgLARS method does not need of the definition of a penalty function, we show that it is possible to develop a cyclic coordinate descent algorithm to compute the solution curve in a high-dimensional setting. Simulation studies show that the proposed algorithm is significantly faster than the prediction-corrector algorithm originally developed to compute the dgLARS solution curve.

Using the dglars Package to Estimate a Sparse Generalized Linear Model

2015

dglars is a publicly available R package that implements the method proposed in Augugliaro et al. (J. R. Statist. Soc. B 75(3), 471-498, 2013) developed to study the sparse structure of a generalized linear model (GLM). This method, called dgLARS, is based on a differential geometrical extension of the least angle regression method. The core of the dglars package consists of two algorithms implemented in Fortran 90 to efficiently compute the solution curve. dglars is a publicly available R package that implements the method proposed in Augugliaro et al.

Induced smoothing in LASSO regression

The thesis is being carried out with the National research Council at the Institute of Biomedicine and Molecular Immunology "Alberto Monroy" of Palermo, where I am a fellow, under the supervision of MD Stefania La Grutta. Our research unit is focused on clinical research in allergic respiratory problems in children. In particular, we are interested in to assess the determinants of impaired lung function in a sample of outpatient asthmatic children aged between 5 and 17 years enrolled from 2011 to 2017. Our dataset is composed by n = 529 children and several covariates regarding host and environmental factors. This thesis focuses on hypothesis testing in lasso regression, when one is interes…

dglars: An R Package to Estimate Sparse Generalized Linear Models

2014

dglars is a publicly available R package that implements the method proposed in Augugliaro, Mineo, and Wit (2013), developed to study the sparse structure of a generalized linear model. This method, called dgLARS, is based on a differential geometrical extension of the least angle regression method proposed in Efron, Hastie, Johnstone, and Tibshirani (2004). The core of the dglars package consists of two algorithms implemented in Fortran 90 to efficiently compute the solution curve: a predictor-corrector algorithm, proposed in Augugliaro et al. (2013), and a cyclic coordinate descent algorithm, proposed in Augugliaro, Mineo, and Wit (2012). The latter algorithm, as shown here, is significan…

Estimation of sparse generalized linear models: the dglars package

2013

dglars is a public available R package that implements the method proposed in Augugliaro, Mineo and Wit (2013) developed to study the sparse structure of a generalized linear model. This method, called dgLARS, is based on a differential geometrical extension of the least angle regression method (LARS). The core of the dglars package consists of two algorithms implemented in Fortran 90 to efficiently compute the solution curve; specifically a predictor-corrector algorithm and a cyclic coordinate descent algorithm.
