This article is concerned with the computational aspect of l₁ regularization problems with a certain class of piecewise linear loss functions. The problem of computing the l₁ regularization path for a ...

This paper describes the Criss-Cross Method of solving linear programming problems. The method, a primal-dual scheme, normally begins with a problem solution that is neither primal nor dual feasible, ...
