Lassopack: model selection and prediction with regularized regression in Stata
Open accessAbstract
In this article, we introduce lassopack, a suite of programs for regularized regression in Stata. lassopack implements lasso, square-root lasso, elastic net, ridge regression, adaptive lasso, and postestimation ordinary least squares. The methods are suitable for the high-dimensional setting, where the number of predictors p may be large and possibly greater than the number of observations, n. We offer three approaches for selecting the penalization (“tuning”) parameters: information criteria (implemented in lasso2), K-fold cross-validation and h-step-ahead rolling cross-validation for cross-section, panel, and time-series data (cvlasso), and theory-driven (“rigorous” or plugin) penalization for the lasso and square-root lasso for cross-section and panel data (rlasso). We discuss the theoretical framework and practical considerations for each approach. We also present Monte Carlo results to compare the performances of the penalization approaches.

Lasso shrinkage avoids overestimation of coefficients and provides more appropriate (i.e. generalisable) predictions where multiple correlated variables are included in the model.
“Importantly for the present study, shrinkage of the coefficients avoids their overestimation and provides more appropriate (i.e. generalisable) predictions where multiple correlated variables are included in the model”
From Key demographics and psychological skills associated with adjustment to progressive Multiple Sclerosis early in the diagnosis (2022) · cites this paper as [31]
The Introduction (p. 2) says shrinkage tends to improve out-of-sample prediction by reducing overfitting, and the Elastic net section (p. 7) discusses lasso with correlated regressors. But the paper does not say shrinkage avoids overestimation of coefficients; it says shrinkage induces bias, and describes the prediction benefit as a tendency rather than a guarantee.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
