Overview

About

Maintained by John Myles White2 releasesCRAN page ↗

Predict continuous valued outputs associated with text documents. The input corpus of text documents is transformed into a document-term matrix (DTM) and then a regularized linear regression is fit that uses this matrix as predictors to predict the continuous valued output. The corpus's terms, coefficients for all terms and an estimate of the model's predictive power are returned in a list.

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/TextRegression/TextRegression_0.1-3.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "TextRegression_0.1-3.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.1-3) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
