The Institute for Statistics and Mathematics is pleased to invite you to the next research seminar, taking place on campus:

Balasubramanian Narasimhan (Department of Statistics, Stanford University, USA)
Elastic Net Regularization for GLMs and Extensions
Wednesday, January 24, 2024, 18:15 - Zoom link to join

Abstract:
The R package ‘glmnet’ is widely used for fitting lasso and elastic net models and has undergone continuous development over the years [1-4]. Some recent updates [5] allow for fitting elastic net regularized regression to all generalized linear model families, Cox models to start-stop data, and fitting relaxed lasso models. I will discuss the design and implementation of these features together with some related examples. This is joint work with Kenneth Tay and Trevor Hastie.

We aim to stream all on-campus talks via Zoom. A direct link to the stream will be posted on our website.
