Abstract
We propose a new model selection technique based on the limit of the lasso path as the penalty parameter tends to zero. The method provably guarantees model selection under a weaker condition than the lasso and performs better empirically in terms of false discovery rate (FDR). We extend the method to the situation of missing covariates.
