%0 Journal Article %T Least angle and 1 penalized regression: A review %A Tim Hesterberg %A Nam Hee Choi %A Lukas Meier %A Chris Fraley %J Statistics Surveys %D 2008 %I Statistics Surveys %X Least Angle Regression is a promising technique for variable selection applications, offering a nice alternative to stepwise regression. It provides an explanation for the similar behavior of LASSO ( 1-penalized regression) and forward stagewise regression, and provides a fast implementation of both. The idea has caught on rapidly, and sparked a great deal of research interest. In this paper, we give an overview of Least Angle Regression and the current state of related research. %K Lasso %K Regression %K Regularization %K 1 penalty %K Variable selection %U http://projecteuclid.org/euclid.ssu/1211317636
