The erahumed R package provides the infrastructure for the ERAHUMED Decision Support System (DSS), that consists of:

  • Data. The inputs for the DSS are packaged as R data.frames imported with erahumed.
  • Analysis. The entire modeling pipeline is implemented by R functions.
  • Visualization. All model outputs are R objects with methods for data exploration and visualization.
  • Interactive Interface. All of the above has a graphical interface implemented as a Shiny application, which is also bundled with the package.

Installation

You can install the latest release of erahumed from Github, by running the following command in your local R session:

remotes::install_github("erahumed/erahumed@*release")

If you want the development version (notice: this may be unstable), simply omit the @*release reference, as in:

remotes::install_github("erahumed/erahumed")  # development version

Usage

Example 1: Using the interactive dashboard

The graphical interface to the ERAHUMED DSS can be accessed through the following R command:

erahumed::launch_app()

This will open the DSS dashboard in your default browser, from where you can explore model outputs in a user friendly manner.

Example 2: command line interface to the models
