		Penalized Principal Machine for Sufficient Dimension Reduction //
		A unified, computation-friendly framework for penalized
		principal machines (P2M), a class of sparse sufficient
		dimension reduction (SDR) estimators for regression and binary
		classification. Principal machines (PM) estimate the central
		subspace by solving a family of convex-loss problems over
		several cutoffs; their penalized counterparts (P2M) add a row-
		group sparsity penalty so that dimension reduction and variable
		selection are performed simultaneously. All estimators are
		fitted by a single group coordinate descent (GCD) algorithm
		that accommodates least squares, logistic, asymmetric least
		squares, L2-hinge, hinge (support vector machine, SVM) and
		quantile losses, together with the least absolute shrinkage and
		selection operator (LASSO), the smoothly clipped absolute
		deviation (SCAD) penalty and the minimax concave penalty (MCP).
		Methods are described in Li, Artemiou and Li (2011)
