How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

One cyclic coordinate-descent cycle for correlated-design Lasso

Example

Let n=2, X1=(1,0)T, X2=(1,1)T, y=(2,1)T, and τ=1/4 in Lasso estimator for fixed design. Starting at θ0=(0,0), one exact cyclic sweep in the order 1,2 gives θ1=(3/2,0) and θ2=(3/2,1/2).

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The design and response in the Example, positive Lasso penalty τ=1/4, cyclic coordinate order 1,2, and sweep budget K=1.

[F1]

Cyclic exact block minimization: a cyclic sweep replaces each selected block by a global minimizer of the objective slice with the other coordinates fixed.

[F2]

Lasso estimator for fixed design: Qy(θ)=12∥y−Xθ∥22+12∥θ∥1 for these n,τ.

[F3]

Exact Lasso coordinate update, including a zero column: a nonzero column update is Snτ(XjTrj)/∥Xj∥22.

Proof

1.1F1F2F3givenalgebra

Initially r1=y, so X1Tr1=2, ∥X1∥22=1, and nτ=1/2. The update lemma gives θ11=S1/2(2)=3/2; holding θ2=0 gives residual (1/2,1) and objective Qy(3/2,0)=12(1/4+1)+12(3/2)=11/8.

For the second block, r2=y−X1(3/2)=(1/2,1), so X2Tr2=3/2 and ∥X2∥22=2. Thus θ22=S1/2(3/2)/2=1/2. The final residual is (0,1/2) and Qy(3/2,1/2)=12(1/4)+12(2)=9/8. The values decrease from Qy(0,0)=5/2 to 11/8 to 9/8, as the exact updates require.

Dependency tree · two levels

10 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
