In statistics, to increase the prediction accuracy and interpret-ability of the model, LASSO (Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator) is extremely popular. It is a regression procedure that involves selection and regularisation and was developed in 1989. Lasso regression is an extension of linear regression that uses shrinkage. The lasso imposes a constraint on the sum of the absolute values of the model parameters. Here the sum has a specific constant as an upper bound.
