1 Introduction

documents the derivation of single index predictors of scalar outcomes based on spatial and non-spatial single-cell imaging data.

2 Prerequisite

2.1 Environment

Package hyper.gam (v0.2.0) requires R version 4.5.0 (released 2025-04-11) or higher (macOS, Windows, Linux).

An Integrated Development Environment (IDE), e.g., RStudio (Posit team 2025) or Positron, is not required, but highly recommended.

2.2 Enhancement & Dependency

Package hyper.gam (v0.2.0) Enhances package mgcv (Wood 2017, v1.9.3). Details are provided in the complete vignette.

The dependencies of package hyper.gam are detailed in the complete vignette.

Package hyper.gam requires the development versions of the spatstat.* family of packages (Baddeley, Rubak, and Turner 2015; Baddeley and Turner 2005). Installation instructions are provided in the complete vignette of package groupedHyperframe (Zhan and Chervoneva 2025, v0.3.0), Section 4.1.

2.3 Installation

Packages hyper.gam (v0.2.0) and groupedHyperframe (v0.3.0) can be installed using the following command.

utils::install.packages('groupedHyperframe')
utils::install.packages('hyper.gam')

2.4 Getting Started

library(groupedHyperframe)
library(hyper.gam)
library(survival)
