Overview

About

Maintained by Shikhar TyagiCRAN page ↗

Implements Random Forest regression under the Modified Topp-Leone (MTL) distribution error model. Provides core distribution functions (density, cumulative distribution, exact closed-form quantile, random generation, hazard, and survival), parameter estimation via closed-form Expectation-Maximization/Maximum Likelihood (EM/MLE) and Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), non-parametric bootstrap confidence intervals (at 90%, 95%, and 99% levels), Highest Posterior Density (HPD) intervals, Heidelberger and Welch MCMC convergence diagnostics, model evaluation metrics (estimated values, bias, mean squared error, risk value), homoscedastic prediction intervals, and goodness-of-fit diagnostic tests (Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Anderson-Darling tests, Akaike Information Criterion, and Bayesian Information Criterion).

Install

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

install.packages("MTLRF", 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-mtlrf

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-MTLRF

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-MTLRF

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.
