The LASSO is a widely used shrinkage method for linear regression. We propose an online homotopy algorithm to solve a generalization of the LASSO in which the $l_{1}$ regularization is applied on a linear transformation of the solution, allowing to input prior information on the structure of the problem and to improve interpretability of the results. The algorithm takes advantage of the sparsity of the solution for computational efficiency and is promising for mining large datasets.
