Overview

About

Likelihood-based estimation of conditional transformation models via the most likely transformation approach described in Hothorn et al. (2018) DOI:10.1111/sjos.12291 and Hothorn (2020) DOI:10.18637/jss.v092.i01. Shift-scale (Siegfried et al, 2023, DOI:10.1080/00031305.2023.2203177) and multivariate (Klein et al, 2022, DOI:10.1111/sjos.12501) transformation models are part of this package. A package vignette is available from DOI:10.32614/CRAN.package.mlt.docreg and more convenient user interfaces to many models from DOI:10.32614/CRAN.package.tram.
