Balakumar\nbbalasub@stanford.edu\n\nHan Fang\nhanfang.cshl@gmail.com\n\n## Install\n\nUsing pip (recommended)\n\n    pip install glmnet_py\n\nComplied from source\n\n    git clone https://github.com/hanfang/glmnet_python.git\n    cd glmnet_python\n    python setup.py install\n\nRequirement: Python3, Linux\n\nCurrently, the checked-in version of GLMnet.so is compiled for the following config:\n\n **Linux:** Linux version 2.6.32-573.26.1.el6.x86_64 (gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-16) (GCC) )\n **OS:** CentOS 6.7 (Final)\n **Hardware:** 8-core Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2630QM\n **gfortran:** version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-17) (GCC)\n\n\n## Usage\n    import glmnet_python\n    from glmnet import glmnet\n\nFor more examples, see https://github.com/hanfang/glmnet_python/tree/master/test\n\n\n## Introduction\n\nThis is a python version of the popular `glmnet` library (beta release). Glmnet fits the entire lasso or elastic-net regularization path for `linear` regression, `logistic` and `multinomial` regression models, `poisson` regression and the `cox` model.\n\nThe underlying fortran codes are the same as the `R` version, and uses a cyclical path-wise coordinate descent algorithm as described in the papers linked below.\n\nCurrently, `glmnet` library methods for gaussian, multi-variate gaussian, binomial, multinomial, poisson and cox models are implemented for both normal and sparse matrices.\n\nAdditionally, cross-validation is also implemented for gaussian, multivariate gaussian, binomial, multinomial and poisson models. CV for cox models is yet to be implemented.\n\nCV can be done in both serial and parallel manner. Parallellization is done using `multiprocessing` and `joblib` libraries.\n\nDuring installation, the fortran code is compiled in the local machine using `gfortran`, and is called by the python code.\n\n````diff\n+Getting started:\n````\n*The best starting point to use this library is to start with the Jupyter notebooks in the `test` directory (glmnet_examples.ipynb). Detailed explanations of function calls and parameter values along with plenty of examples are provided there to get you started.*\n\n## Authors:\n\nAlgorithm was designed by Jerome Friedman, Trevor Hastie and Rob Tibshirani. Fortran code was written by Jerome Friedman. R wrapper (from which the MATLAB wrapper was adapted) was written by Trevor Hastie.\n\nThe original MATLAB wrapper was written by Hui Jiang (14 Jul 2009), and was updated and is maintained by Junyang Qian (30 Aug 2013).\n\nThis python wrapper (which was adapted from the MATLAB and R wrappers) was originally written by B. J. Balakumar (5 Sep 2016), later modified by Han Fang.\n\nB. J. Balakumar, bbalasub@stanford.edu (5 Sep 2016).
