logicDT - Identifying Interactions Between Binary Predictors

A statistical learning method that tries to find the best set of predictors and interactions between predictors for modeling binary or quantitative response data in a decision tree. Several search algorithms and ensembling techniques are implemented allowing for finetuning the method to the specific problem. Interactions with quantitative covariables can be properly taken into account by fitting local regression models. Moreover, a variable importance measure for assessing marginal and interaction effects is provided. Implements the procedures proposed by Lau et al. (2024, <doi:10.1007/s10994-023-06488-6>).

GRSxE - Testing Gene-Environment Interactions Through Genetic Risk Scores

Statistical testing procedures for detecting GxE (gene-environment) interactions. The main focus lies on GRSxE interaction tests that aim at detecting GxE interactions through GRS (genetic risk scores). Moreover, a novel testing procedure based on bagging and OOB (out-of-bag) predictions is implemented for incorporating all available observations at both GRS construction and GxE testing (Lau et al., 2023, <doi:10.1038/s41598-023-28172-4>).
