MixRF

A random-forest-based approach for imputing clustered incomplete data

This R package offers random-forest-based functions to impute clustered incomplete data. The package is tailored for but not limited to imputing multitissue expression data, in which a gene's expression is measured on the collected tissues of an individual but missing on the uncollected tissues.

Installation

• For the stable version from CRAN:

install.packages('MixRF')

• For the development version (requiring the devtools package):

# devtools::install_github('randel/MixRF')
install.packages("MixRF", repos = c('https://randel.r-universe.dev', 'https://cloud.r-project.org'))
