Cyclops is part of the HADES.
Introduction
Cyclops (Cyclic coordinate descent for logistic, Poisson and survival analysis) is an R package for performing large scale regularized regressions.
Features
- Regression of very large problems: up to millions of observations, millions of variables
- Supports (conditional) logistic regression, (conditional) Poisson regression, as well as (conditional) Cox regression
- Uses a sparse representation of the independent variables when appropriate
- Supports using no prior, a normal prior or a Laplace prior
- Supports automatic selection of hyperparameter through cross-validation
- Efficient estimation of confidence intervals for a single variable using a profile-likelihood for that variable
Examples
library(Cyclops)
cyclopsData <- createCyclopsDataFrame(formula)
cyclopsFit <- fitCyclopsModel(cyclopsData)Technology
Cyclops in an R package, with most functionality implemented in C++. Cyclops uses cyclic coordinate descent to optimize the likelihood function, which makes use of the sparse nature of the data.
