Fit a linear model regularized by the nonconvex MC+ sparsity penalty

Description

Sparsenet uses coordinate descent on the MC+ nonconvex penalty family, and fits a surface of solutions over the two-dimensional parameter space.

Details

At its simplest, provide x,y data and it returns the solution paths. There are tools for prediction, cross-validation, plotting and printing.
