Understanding the Magic of LASSO Feature Selection

  • LASSO is a technique that combines linear regression with L1 regularization to automatically select relevant features and produce sparse models.
  • The optimization function of LASSO minimizes the sum of squared residuals while constraining the sum of absolute weights, forcing many coefficients to zero.
  • L1 regularization in LASSO creates a constraint region in parameter space, essential for feature selection by forcing some coefficients to exactly zero.
  • LASSO is useful for feature importance analysis, robust to multicollinearity, and can be visualized through the regularization path of coefficients.
