回归

岭回归基本概念

在进行特征选择时，一般有三种方式：

1. 子集选择
2. 收缩方式(Shrinkage method)，又称为正则化(Regularization)。主 要包括岭回归和lasso回归。
3. 维数缩减
岭回归(Ridge Regression)是在平方误差的基础上增加正则项

通过确定的值可以使得在方差和偏差之间达到平衡：随着的增大，模型方差减小而偏差增大。
对求导，结果为 :
令其为0，可求得的值：

正则化目的：

参数影响

This method has the same order of complexity than an Ordinary Least Squares. If X is a matrix of size (n, p) this method has a cost of O(n p^2), assuming that n >p.

Lasso

it consists of a linear model trained with L1 prior as regularizer. The objective function to minimize is:

• This method has the same order of complexity than an Ordinary Least Squares. If X is a matrix of size (n, p) this method has a cost of O(n p^2), assuming that n >p.

Lasso

it consists of a linear model trained with \ell_1 prior as regularizer. The objective function to minimize is:

Elastic Net

• 
  
• A practical advantage of trading-off between Lasso and Ridge is it allows Elastic-Net to inherit some of Ridge’s stability under rotation.
• Elastic-net is useful when there are multiple features which are correlated with one another. Lasso is likely to pick one of these at random, while elastic-net is likely to pick both.
