First provide a summary of the paper, and then address the following criteria: Quality, clarity, originality and significance. The paper introduces a novel convex region-specific linear models called partition-wise linear model. It assigns linear models to partitions of the input space and linear combination of these partition-specific models define the region-specific linear models. This allows them to construct convex objective functions. They optimize both the regions and predictors by using sparsity inducing structured penalties.
