Trade-off curves

using Random
Random.seed!(1)
m = 25;
n = 10;
A = randn(m, n);
b = randn(m, 1);

using Convex, SCS, LinearAlgebra

gammas = exp10.(range(-4, stop = 2, length = 100));

x_values = zeros(n, length(gammas));
x = Variable(n);
for i in 1:length(gammas)
    cost = sumsquares(A * x - b) + gammas[i] * norm(x, 1)
    problem = minimize(cost, [norm(x, Inf) <= 1])
    solve!(problem, SCS.Optimizer; silent_solver = true)
    x_values[:, i] = evaluate(x)
end

Plot the regularization path.

using Plots
plot(
    title = "Entries of x vs lambda",
    xaxis = :log,
    xlabel = "lambda",
    ylabel = "x",
)
for i in 1:n
    plot!(gammas, x_values[i, :], label = "x$i")
end
plot!()
