Cyclops (version 3.4.0)

Cyclops-package: Cyclops: Cyclic Coordinate Descent for Logistic, Poisson and Survival Analysis

Description

This model fitting tool incorporates cyclic coordinate descent and majorization-minimization approaches to fit a variety of regression models found in large-scale observational healthcare data. Implementations focus on computational optimization and fine-scale parallelization to yield efficient inference in massive datasets.
