Overview

About

Maintained by Angel Robles3 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

A minimalistic but flexible framework that facilitates the creation, management and training of multiple 'caret' models. A model grid consists of two components, (1) a set of settings that is shared by all models by default, and (2) specifications that apply only to the individual models. When the model grid is trained, model and training specifications are first consolidated from the shared and the model specific settings into complete 'caret' model configurations. These models are then trained with the 'train()' function from the 'caret' package.

Install

R (source archive)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)openSUSE (OBS)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/modelgrid/modelgrid_1.2.0.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "modelgrid_1.2.0.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 (1.2.0) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("smaakage85/modelgrid")

Development version from smaakage85/modelgrid. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

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-modelgrid

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

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

# 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-modelgrid

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
