We consider efficient implementations of the generalized lasso dual path algorithm of Tibshirani and Taylor (2011). We first describe a generic approach that covers any penalty matrix D and any (full column rank) matrix X of predictor variables. We then describe fast implementations for the special cases of trend filte…
