Download or read book The Solution Path of the Generalized Lasso written by Ryan Joseph Tibshirani and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We present a path algorithm for the generalized lasso problem. This problem penalizes the l1 norm of a matrix D times the coefficient vector, and has a wide range of applications, dictated by the choice of D. Our algorithm is based on solving the dual of the generalized lasso, which facilitates computation and conceptual understanding of the path. For D=I (the usual lasso), we draw a connection between our approach and the well-known LARS algorithm. For an arbitrary D, we derive an unbiased estimate of the degrees of freedom of the generalized lasso fit. This estimate turns out to be quite intuitive in many applications.

Download or read book Solve for Happy written by Mo Gawdat and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this “powerful personal story woven with a rich analysis of what we all seek” (Sergey Brin, cofounder of Google), Mo Gawdat, Chief Business Officer at Google’s [X], applies his superior logic and problem solving skills to understand how the brain processes joy and sadness—and then he solves for happy. In 2001 Mo Gawdat realized that despite his incredible success, he was desperately unhappy. A lifelong learner, he attacked the problem as an engineer would: examining all the provable facts and scrupulously applying logic. Eventually, his countless hours of research and science proved successful, and he discovered the equation for permanent happiness. Thirteen years later, Mo’s algorithm would be put to the ultimate test. After the sudden death of his son, Ali, Mo and his family turned to his equation—and it saved them from despair. In dealing with the horrible loss, Mo found his mission: he would pull off the type of “moonshot” goal that he and his colleagues were always aiming for—he would share his equation with the world and help as many people as possible become happier. In Solve for Happy Mo questions some of the most fundamental aspects of our existence, shares the underlying reasons for suffering, and plots out a step-by-step process for achieving lifelong happiness and enduring contentment. He shows us how to view life through a clear lens, teaching us how to dispel the illusions that cloud our thinking; overcome the brain’s blind spots; and embrace five ultimate truths. No matter what obstacles we face, what burdens we bear, what trials we’ve experienced, we can all be content with our present situation and optimistic about the future.
