Overview

About

Maintained by Junhui LiFirst published 2025-11-031 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

A web-based 'shiny' interface for the 'StepReg' package enables stepwise regression analysis across linear, generalized linear (including logistic, Poisson, Gamma, and negative binomial), and Cox models. It supports forward, backward, bidirectional, and best-subset selection under a range of criteria. The package also supports stepwise regression to multivariate settings, allowing multiple dependent variables to be modeled simultaneously. Users can explore and combine multiple selection strategies and criteria to optimize model selection. For enhanced robustness, the package offers optional randomized forward selection to reduce overfitting, and a data-splitting workflow for more reliable post-selection inference. Additional features include logging and visualization of the selection process, as well as the ability to export results in common formats.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-stepregshiny

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-StepRegShiny

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-StepRegShiny

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
