It provides an explanation for the similar behavior of LASSO ($\ell_1$-penalized regression) and forward stagewise regression, and provides a fast implementation of both. The idea has caught on rapidly, and sparked a great deal of research interest. In this paper, we give an overview of Least Angle Regression and the current state of related research.Published in at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/08-SS035 the Statistics Surveys (http://www.i-journals.org/ss/) by the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (http://www.imstat.org)MethodologyMachine Learning62J07 (Primary) 69J99 (Secondary)text
