TSLA - Tree-Guided Rare Feature Selection and Logic Aggregation
Implementation of the tree-guided feature selection and
logic aggregation approach introduced in Chen et al. (2024)
<doi:10.1080/01621459.2024.2326621>. The method enables the
selection and aggregation of large-scale rare binary features
with a known hierarchical structure using a convex,
linearly-constrained regularized regression framework. The
package facilitates the application of this method to both
linear regression and binary classification problems by solving
the optimization problem via the smoothing proximal gradient
descent algorithm (Chen et al. (2012)
<doi:10.1214/11-AOAS514>).
