The Lasso is a very well known penalized regression model, which adds an $L_{1}$ penalty with parameter $\lambda_{1}$ on the coefficients to the squared error loss function. The Fused Lasso extends this model by also putting an $L_{1}$ penalty with parameter $\lambda_{2}$ on the difference of neighboring coefficients, assuming there is a natural ordering. In this paper, we develop a fast path algorithm for solving the Fused Lasso Signal Approximator that computes the solutions for all values of $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$. In the supplement, we also give an algorithm for the general Fused Lasso for the case with predictor matrix $\bX \in \mathds{R}^{n \times p}$ with $\text{rank}(\bX)=p$.
