Jun 26, 2016 at 19:41 comment added jeza @Matthew Drury, Now, when we center the variables and omit the intercept , we will have this expression ∑i(yi−βxi)2+λ∑j|βj| ,in this case how to derive β^lasso ? Then that leads to two cases I mentioned before , but I am confuse because I don't know how β^lasso is found from that expression.
Jun 26, 2016 at 17:48 comment added Matthew Drury I'm not sure what the terms "stationary" and "non-stationary" mean in your second question, so there is a chance I did not address it. If you still have that question, could you elaborate a bit?

Jun 26, 2016 at 17:41 comment added Matthew Drury @jeza I tried to break it down a bit further using the simple one predictor case. I hope this helps, I'm not sure I can make it simpler, I think I'm at the limit where the explanation captures only the complexity that is inherit in the question.

Jun 26, 2016 at 13:54 comment added jeza @Matthew Drury, First, could you show me please where -2β0 comes from? Second, by mathematical I mean taking the derivative for this expression ∑i(yi−βxi)2+λ∑j|βj| with respect to β, and considering absolute value is equal to the value itself or to its negative, so if this the case when is the minimum a stationary minimum and when is it a non-stationary minimum?

Jun 25, 2016 at 19:24 comment added jeza @Matthew Drury I would like to make sure, is the reason of y¯ equals zero because y¯=∑i(yi−y¯)/n . second, how to make derivative with respect to β0 while it is not found in the function that you the derivative for. In addition, can I find (beta^hat_lasoo) "the coefficients" which is equal to (sum(yi minus beta xi)^2+lambda|beta|) mathematically ?How? Thanks ever so much for your clarification.
Jun 25, 2016 at 17:25 comment added Richard Hardy @jeza, I suppose the question should be addressed to Matthew Drury.
