tram: Transformation Models

Torsten Hothorn, Sandra Siegfried, Lucas Kook · 2018

Formula-based user-interfaces to specific transformation models implemented in package 'mlt' (, ). Available models include Cox models, some parametric survival models (Weibull, etc.), models for ordered categorical variables, normal and non-normal (Box-Cox type) linear models, and continuous outcome logistic regression (Lohse et al., 2017, ). The underlying theory is described in Hothorn et al. (2018) . An extension to transformation models for clustered data is provided (Barbanti and Hothorn, 2022, ) and a tutorial explains applications in survival analysis (Siegfried et al., 2025, ). Multivariate conditional transformation models (Klein et al, 2022, ) and shift-scale transformation models (Siegfried et al, 2023, ) can be fitted as well. The package contains an implementation of a doubly robust score test, described in Kook et al. (2024, ).
