  <dc:title>SparseStep Regression</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package sparsestep version 1.0.1</dc:title>
  <dc:subject>Classification/MSC: 62J05, 62J07</dc:subject>
  <dc:description>Implements the SparseStep model for solving regression
    problems with a sparsity constraint on the parameters. The SparseStep
    regression model was proposed in Van den Burg, Groenen, and Alfons (2017)
    &lt;arXiv:1701.06967&gt;. In the model, a regularization term is added to the
    regression problem which approximates the counting norm of the parameters.
    By iteratively improving the approximation a sparse solution to the
    regression problem can be obtained.  In this package both the standard
    SparseStep algorithm is implemented as well as a path algorithm which uses
    golden section search to determine solutions with different values for the
    regularization parameter.</dc:description>
