Overview

About

Maintained by Mike MastandunoCRAN page ↗Website ↗

Aims to make machine learning in healthcare as easy as possible. You can develop customized, reliable, high-performance machine learning models with minimal code. Models are created with automatic preprocessing, hyperparameter tuning, and algorithm selection (between 'xgboost' Chen, T. & Guestrin, C. (2016) arXiv:1603.02754, 'ranger' Wright, M. N., & Ziegler, A. (2017) doi:10.18637/jss.v077.i01, and 'glm' Friedman J, Hastie T, Tibshirani R. (2010) doi:10.18637/jss.v033.i01) so that they can be easily put into production. Additionally, there are tools to help understand how a model makes its predictions, select prediction threshholds for operational use, and evaluate model performance over time. Code uses 'tidyverse' syntax and most methods have an associated visualization.

Changes in 2.5.1

Fixed

Numerous bugs with recipes and other updated packages.

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/healthcareai/healthcareai_2.5.1.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "healthcareai_2.5.1.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 (2.5.1) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
