Common high-dimensional methods for prediction rely on having either a sparse signal model, a model in which most parameters are zero and there are a small number of nonzero parameters that are large ...
A regression problem is one where the goal is to predict a single numeric value. For example, you might want to predict the annual income of a person based on their sex, age, State where they live and ...
The application of the lasso is espoused in high dimensional settings where only a small number of the regression coefficients are believed to be non-zero (i.e. the solution is sparse). Moreover, ...
