Coordinate Descent Alternating between LASSO and Ridge
Is there a way to do Coordinate descent but depending on the variable change the method applied to find the coefficient?
For example, apply a LASSO constraint to a predefined 3 variables and Ridge to ...

Is this "stochastic gradient method" different from the stochastic gradient descent algorithm?
In a computational statistics book, I found an optimization method to find local minimum of a function.
Let's assume that we have a differentiable function $f: \mathbb{R}^2 \longrightarrow \mathbb{R}$....
