E2E is a comprehensive R package designed to streamline the development, evaluation, and interpretation of machine learning models for both diagnostic (classification) and prognostic (survival analysis) tasks. It provides a robust, extensible framework for training individual models and building powerful ensembles—including Bagging, Voting, and Stacking—with minimal code. The package also includes integrated tools for visualization and model explanation via SHAP values.
