cmaRs - Implementation of the Conic Multivariate Adaptive Regression
Splines in R
An implementation of 'Conic Multivariate Adaptive
Regression Splines (CMARS)' in R. See Weber et al. (2011)
CMARS: a new contribution to nonparametric regression with
multivariate adaptive regression splines supported by
continuous optimization, <DOI:10.1080/17415977.2011.624770>. It
constructs models by using the terms obtained from the forward
step of MARS and then estimates parameters by using 'Tikhonov'
regularization and conic quadratic optimization. It is possible
to construct models for prediction and binary classification.
It provides performance measures for the model developed. The
package needs the optimisation software 'MOSEK'
<https://www.mosek.com/> to construct the models. Please follow
the instructions in 'Rmosek' for the installation.
