...It targets large scale settings by varying the number of observations (n) up to millions and the number of features (after expansion) to about a thousand, to stress test different implementations. The benchmarks cover algorithms like logistic regression, random forest, gradient boosting, and deep neural networks, and they compare across toolkits such as scikit-learn, R packages, xgboost, H2O, Spark MLlib, etc. The repository is structured in logical folders, each corresponding to algorithm categories.

RStan is the R interface to Stan, a C++ library for statistical modeling and high-performance statistical computation. It lets users specify models in the Stan modeling language (for Bayesian inference), compile them, and perform inference from R. Key inference approaches include full Bayesian inference via Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (specifically the No-U-Turn Sampler, NUTS), approximate Bayesian inference via variational methods, and optimization (penalized likelihood). RStan integrates with...
