Dear R-packages community,

I am prof. Albert Ses? from the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB).

I am writing to announce MLwrap, an R package now available on CRAN.

MLwrap is designed to simplify machine learning implementation for 
educational and research contexts. It provides a step-by-step workflow 
that emphasizes reproducibility, transparency, and pedagogical clarity.

The package integrates four machine learning algorithms:

- Neural Networks (Multilayer Perceptron)
- Support Vector Machines
- Random Forests
- XGBoost

Key features:

- Unified pipeline for model building, optimization, and evaluation
- Explicit handling of random seeds for reproducibility
- Clear, accessible interface for learning
- Built-in sensitivity analysis for model interpretation

Resources:

CRAN package: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/MLwrap
Tutorial: https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/j6m4z

Web page: https://areademetodologia.uib.es/MLwrap/MLwrap_website.html

MLwrap is particularly useful for teaching statistics and data science? 
courses to students and researchers new to machine learning.
