=============================================
Joint feature selection with multi-task Lasso
=============================================

The multi-task lasso allows to fit multiple regression problems
jointly enforcing the selected features to be the same accross
tasks. This example simulates sequential measurements, each task
is a time instant, and the relevant features vary in amplitude
over time while being the same.
