Installation

You can install the stable version on R CRAN.

install.packages("splitSelect", dependencies = TRUE)

You can install the development version from GitHub.

library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("AnthonyChristidis/splitSelect")

Usage

Here is some code to generate all possible splits of variables into groups.

# Loading library
library(splitSelect)

# Setting number of variables and groups
p <- 8
G <- 4
use.all <- TRUE

# Generate the number of partitions
my.partitions <- generate_partitions(p, G, use.all=use.all)
my.partitions

# Generate the number of splits
nsplit(p, G, use.all=use.all)
# Generate the number of splits (fixed partition)
nsplit(p, G, use.all=use.all,
       fix.partition=matrix(c(2,2,2,2), nrow=1))

# Generate the splits
all.splits <- generate_splits(p, G, use.all=use.all)
head(all.splits)
nrow(all.splits)
# Generate the splits (fixed partition)
all.splits <- generate_splits(p, G, use.all=use.all,
                              fix.partition=matrix(c(2,2,2,2), nrow=1))
head(all.splits)
nrow(all.splits)

# Generate samples of splits
sample.splits <- rsplit(10000, p, G, fix.partition=matrix(c(2,2,2,2), nrow=1))
sample.splits

Here is some code to apply to compute the best split selection estimator for simulated data with spurious correlation in the training set.
