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 ...

How to exploit existing closed-form update in stochastic coordinate descent?
I want to minimize a loss function $L(\Theta \mid X)$ given data $X = \{x_1,\dots,x_D\}$ where $D$ is large.
The loss can be decomposed as: $L(\Theta \mid X) = \sum_{d=1}^D l(\Theta \mid x_d)$ where ...

Expected value of log(gamma function(Dirichlet variable))
The following problem emerges from coordinate ascent variational inference in a mixture model with Dirichlet-Multinomial components. I want to compute the expectation of the log likelihood. Since my ...
