Lasso and Elastic Net for Sparse Signals

Estimates Lasso and Elastic-Net regression models on a manually generated sparse signal corrupted with an additive noise. Estimated coefficients are compared with the ground-truth.

Out:

Lasso(alpha=0.1, copy_X=True, fit_intercept=True, max_iter=1000,
   normalize=False, positive=False, precompute=False, random_state=None,
   selection='cyclic', tol=0.0001, warm_start=False)
r^2 on test data : 0.385982
ElasticNet(alpha=0.1, copy_X=True, fit_intercept=True, l1_ratio=0.7,
      max_iter=1000, normalize=False, positive=False, precompute=False,
      random_state=None, selection='cyclic', tol=0.0001, warm_start=False)
