A Platform for Large Scale Statistical Modelling in R
Jason Cairns, Simon Urbanek, Paul R. Murrell · Journal of Data Science · 2024
With the growing scale of big datasets, fitting novel statistical models on larger-than-memory datasets becomes correspondingly challenging. This document outlines the development and use of an API for large scale modelling, with a demonstration given by the proof of concept platform largescaler, developed specifically for the development of statistical models for big datasets.
