Utilities for 'Glmnet'

Provides a formula interface for the 'glmnet' package for elasticnet regression, a method for cross-validating the alpha parameter, and other quality-of-life tools.

glmnetUtils

Some quality-of-life functions to streamline the process of fitting elastic net models with glmnet, specifically:

• glmnet.formula provides a formula/data frame interface to glmnet.
• cv.glmnet.formula does a similar thing for cv.glmnet.
• Methods for predict and coef for both the above.
• A function cva.glmnet to choose both the alpha and lambda parameters via cross-validation, following the approach described in the help page for cv.glmnet. Optionally does the cross-validation in parallel.
• Methods for plot, predict and coef for the above.
