Steve Miller at the InformationManagement blog has been looking at predictive analytics tools for business intelligence applications, and naturally turns to the statistical modeling and prediction capabilities of R. Says Steve:

The technique which is the subject of his most recent post is MARS: Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines, available for R in the “earth” package:

“Mars is an adaptive procedure for regression, and is well suited for high-dimensional (i.e., a large number  of inputs). It can be viewed as a generalization of stepwise linear regression or a modification of the CART procedure to improve the latter’s performance in the regression setting.”
