Variable selection using LASSO

This is a Lasso; it is used to pick and capture animals. As a non-native English speaker, my first exposure to this word is in supervised learning. In this LASSO data science tutorial, we discuss the strengths of the Lasso logistic regression by stepping through how to apply this useful statistical method for classification problems in R and how the Lasso can be "similarly" used to pick and select input variables that are relevant to the classification problem at hand. Data analysts and data scientists use different regression methods for different kinds of analytics problems. One of the most talked-about methods is the Lasso.
