It proposes a novel variable selection approach in classification problem that takes into account the correlations that may exist between the predictors of the design matrix in a high-dimensional logistic model. Our approach consists in rewriting the initial high-dimensional logistic model to remove the correlation between the predictors and in applying the generalized Lasso criterion.
