Overview

About

Maintained by Jungang ZouCRAN page ↗

Provides a suite of Bayesian MI-LASSO for variable selection methods for multiply-imputed datasets. The package includes four Bayesian MI-LASSO models using shrinkage (Multi-Laplace, Horseshoe, ARD) and Spike-and-Slab (Spike-and-Laplace) priors, along with tools for model fitting via MCMC, four-step projection predictive variable selection, and hyperparameter calibration. Methods are suitable for both continuous and binary covariates under missing-at-random or missing-completely-at-random assumptions. See Zou, J., Wang, S. and Chen, Q. (2025), Bayesian MI-LASSO for Variable Selection on Multiply-Imputed Data. ArXiv, 2211.00114. doi:10.48550/arXiv.2211.00114 for more details. We also provide the frequentist MI-LASSO function.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("BMIselect", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-bmiselect

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-BMIselect

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-BMIselect

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
