We have been using Least Angle Regression (lars) to help identify
predictors in models where the outcome is continuous. To do so we have

to use the lars procedure within a general linear model (glm) framework
- we are particular interested in a logistic regression model. Does
anyone have examples of using lars with logistic regression?
I think the problem is that the nice efficient algorithm for lars doesn't
work with generalized linear models because the weights depend on the
fitted means.
