Welcome to the tlverse!

The tlverse is an effort to overhaul the Targeted Learning software ecosystem in R. Inspired by the tidyverse, we aim to construct a collection of R packages that work well together and foster future development in a unified fashion.

Currently, the tlverse is comprised of the following core packages:

• sl3 for Super Learning
• tmle3 for Targeted Minimum Loss-based Estimation (TMLE)

as well as the following helper packages:

• delayed for parallelizing dependent tasks
• origami for cross-validation

and packages for individual tmle3 parameters:

• tmle3shift Shift Intervention
• tmle3mopttx Optimal Treatment

Installation

Some of these packages are not yet available on CRAN, so for now the best option is to install directly via GitHub using devtools:

devtools::install_github("tlverse/tlverse")

Getting Started

For now, the individual package pages are the best place to go to dive into the tlverse. We hope to expand this site with documentation that spans across the different packages, and provide a gentle introduction to the tlverse as a whole.
