Description: Provides implementations of a family of Lasso variants,
        including Dantzig Selector, LAD Lasso, SQRT Lasso, and Lq
        Lasso, for estimating high-dimensional sparse linear models. We
        adopt the alternating direction method of multipliers and
        convert the original optimization problem into a sequence of
        L1-penalized least-squares minimization problems that are
        efficiently solved by linearization and multi-stage screening.
        In addition to sparse linear model estimation, we provide
        extensions of these methods to sparse Gaussian graphical model
        estimation, including TIGER and CLIME, using either L1 or
        adaptive penalties. Missing values can be tolerated for Dantzig
        selector and CLIME. Computation is memory-optimized using
        sparse matrix output. For more information, see
