User-Friendly R Package for Supervised Machine Learning Pipelines
An interface to build machine learning models for classification and regression problems. mikropml implements the ML pipeline described by Topçuoğlu et al. (2020) with reasonable default options for data preprocessing, hyperparameter tuning, cross-validation, testing, model evaluation, and interpretation steps. See the website for more information, documentation, and examples.

The word “mikrop” (pronounced “meek-ROPE”) is Turkish for “microbe”. This package was originally implemented as a machine learning pipeline for microbiome-based classification problems (see Topçuoğlu et al. 2020). We realized that these methods are applicable in many other fields too, but stuck with the name because we like it!
