Lasso non-negative constraint

Hi ,

Please tell me how to put a non-negative constraint on the regression coefficient in Lasso regression.
I use ETS or STAT.

You can use HPGENSELECT to fit your model using the LASSO method in the SELECTION statement. It also has a RESTRICT statement that can be used to restrict parameters in the model. Unfortunately, model selection methods cannot be used together with parameter restrictions. However, after selecting a model, you can try refitting it by adding one or more RESTRICT statements to restrict parameters. For example, the following restricts the X4 parameter to be positive.

proc hpgenselect;
model y=x1 x2 x3 x4;
restrict x4 1 > 0;
run;

I understood that it would be done in two steps.
Thank you.
