Hierarchical Neyman-Pearson Classification for Ordered Classes // The Hierarchical Neyman-Pearson (H-NP) classification framework extends the Neyman-Pearson classification paradigm to multi- class settings where classes have a natural priority ordering. This is particularly useful for classification in unbalanced dataset, for example, disease severity classification, where under-classification errors (misclassifying patients into less severe categories) are more consequential than other misclassifications. The package implements H-NP umbrella algorithms that controls under-classification errors under user specified control levels with high probability. It supports the creation of H-NP classifiers using scoring functions based on built-in classification methods (including logistic regression, support vector machines, and random forests), as well as user- trained scoring functions. The package exports `base_function()` to train these built-in base learners directly for use in the H-NP pipeline.
