Algorithms for Fitting the Constrained Lasso
JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL AND GRAPHICAL STATISTICS, 27(4), 861–871.
TL;DR:
This work employs the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) and also derive an efficient solution path algorithm for solving the constrained lasso problem, and shows that, for an arbitrary penalty matrix, the generalized lasso can be transformed to a constrainedLasso, while the converse is not true.

A majorization-minimization algorithm for split feasibility problems
COMPUTATIONAL OPTIMIZATION AND APPLICATIONS, 71(3), 795–828.
author keywords: Majorize-minimize; Nonlinear split feasibility; Intensity modulated radiation therapy; Proximity function minimization; Constrained regression
TL;DR:
It is shown that the Euclidean norm appearing in the proximity function of the non-linear split feasibility problem can be replaced by arbitrary Bregman divergences, and the algorithm is based on the principle of majorization–minimization, is amenable to quasi-Newton acceleration, and comes complete with convergence guarantees under mild assumptions.

Space-Time Geostatistical Assessment of Hypoxia in the Northern Gulf of Mexico
ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, 52(21), 12484–12493.
MeSH headings : Gulf of Mexico; Humans; Hypoxia; Oxygen; Seasons; Water
TL;DR:
An innovative space-time geostatistical model and data collected by multiple research organizations are used to estimate bottom-water dissolved oxygen concentrations and hypoxic area across summers from 1985 to 2016, finding that 27% of variability in BWDO is explained by deterministic trends with location, depth, and date, while correlated stochasticity accounts for 62% of observational variance.

author keywords: A-learning estimating equations; additive hazards model; doubly robust; optimal treatment regime; time-dependent propensity score
