k-support norm regularization to fMRI analysis.

An exploration of various sparse regularization techniques for analyzing fMRI data, such as the L1 norm (often called LASSO in the context of a squared loss function), Elastic Net, and k-support norm. Employing sparsity regularization allows us to handle the curse of dimensionality, a problem commonly found in fMRI analysis. In this work we consider sparse regularization in both the regression and classification settings. We perform experiments on fMRI scans from cocaine-addicted as well as healthy control subjects.
