Description
Penalized Transformation Models.
Description
Partially penalized versions of specific transformation models implemented in package 'mlt'. Available models include a fully parametric version of the Cox model, other parametric survival models (Weibull, etc.), models for binary and ordered categorical variables, normal and transformed-normal (Box-Cox type) linear models, and continuous outcome logistic regression. Hyperparameter tuning is facilitated through model-based optimization functionalities from package 'mlrMBO'. The accompanying vignette describes the methodology used in 'tramnet' in detail. Transformation models and model-based optimization are described in Hothorn et al. (2019) <doi:10.1111/sjos.12291> and Bischl et al. (2016) <arxiv:1703.03373>, respectively.
