Lasso Estimation of Conditional Logistic Regression Models for Case-Crossover and Matched Case-Control Studies
-
Keywords: Classification , Statistics , Cluster , Machine learning , Regression
-

COVVSURF
Combination of Clustering Of Variables and Variable Selection Using Random Forests
-
Keywords: Classification , Statistics , Cluster , Machine learning , Regression
-
Functional Description This package implements a two stage strategy, where first we use ClustOfVar package to perform a clustering of variables and second we use VSURF package to select features (i.e. synthetic variables built in the first step).
