mfp: Multivariable Fractional Polynomials
The mfp package is a collection of R functions targeted at the use of fractional polynomials (FP) for nonlinear modelling the influence of continuous covariates on the outcome in regression models. For details see:

Extended inference for lasso and elastic-net regularized Cox and generalized linear models
The c060 package extends the popular R-package glmnet and provides additional functions particularly useful for high-dimensional risk prediction modelling, e.g. stability selection, estimation of prediction error (curves) and an efficient interval search algorithm for finding the optimal elastic net tuning parameter combination. Most functions offer improved computational efficiency through code parallelization.
