LASSO or random forest (RF) to use for variable selection when having highly correlated feat...

I know that LASSO can be used to shrink feature set since it can set coefficients to zero depending on the penalization weight. … Considering that LASSO gives stable results for the same data-set, first I am planning to use it to shrink the feature set (from 1000 to 100) and then apply RF for the variable importance. …

Why does lasso return unstable features when using the same data?

It is a very noisy data (market and economic data) To my best knowledge, lasso returns same features for the same data set. However, I don't observe this through my runs. … return features print('Performing LASSO feature selection...') X_train = self. …
