In tidylearn: A Unified Tidy Interface to R's Machine Learning Ecosystem

tidylearn 0.1.0

Initial CRAN Release

• First release of tidylearn - a unified tidy interface to R's machine learning ecosystem

Features

Unified Interface

• tl_model() - Single function to fit 20+ machine learning models
• Consistent function signatures across all methods
• Tidy tibble output for all results
• Access raw model objects via $fit for package-specific functionality

Supervised Learning Methods

• Linear regression (stats::lm)
• Polynomial regression (stats::lm with poly)
• Logistic regression (stats::glm)
• Ridge, LASSO, elastic net (glmnet)
• Decision trees (rpart)
• Random forests (randomForest)
• Gradient boosting (gbm)
• XGBoost (xgboost)
• Support vector machines (e1071)
• Neural networks (nnet)
• Deep learning (keras, optional)

Unsupervised Learning Methods

• Principal Component Analysis (stats::prcomp)
• Multidimensional Scaling (stats, MASS, smacof)
• K-means clustering (stats::kmeans)
• PAM clustering (cluster::pam)
• CLARA clustering (cluster::clara)
• Hierarchical clustering (stats::hclust)
• DBSCAN (dbscan)

Additional Features

• tl_split() - Train/test splitting with stratification support
• tl_prepare_data() - Data preprocessing (scaling, imputation, encoding)
• tl_evaluate() - Model evaluation with multiple metrics
• tl_auto_ml() - Automated machine learning
• tl_tune() - Hyperparameter tuning with grid and random search
• Unified ggplot2-based visualization functions
• Integration workflows combining supervised and unsupervised learning

Wrapped Packages

tidylearn wraps established R packages including: stats, glmnet, randomForest, xgboost, gbm, e1071, nnet, rpart, cluster, dbscan, MASS, and smacof.
