Abstract
Multiplicative updates have proven useful for non-negativity
constrained optimization. Presently, we demonstrate how
multiplicative updates also can be used for unconstrained
optimization. This is for instance useful when estimating the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), i.e. least squares minimization with $L_1$-norm regularization, since the multiplicative updates (MU) can efficiently exploit the structure of the problem traditionally solved using quadratic programming (QP). We derive an algorithm based on MU for the LASSO and compare the performance to Matlabs standard QP solver as well
as the basis pursuit denoising algorithm (BP) which can be
obtained from www.sparselab.stanford.edu. The algorithms were tested on three benchmark bio-informatic datasets: A small scale data set where the number of observations is larger than the number of variables estimated ($M
