modeltime.resample vs OHPL
A side-by-side editorial comparison of modeltime.resample and OHPL — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
modeltime.resample vs OHPL: at a glance
What is modeltime.resample?
modeltime.resample exists to keep backtesting working as tidymodels shifts underneath it.
modeltime.resample runs time series cross-validation over modeltime models, returning per-resample predictions and accuracy plots. Version 0.3.0 is the substantive release in view: tune 2.0.0 compatibility, deterministic seeding via withr, guaranteed .predictions output, and clearer failures when resample fits break. The three releases before it are dependency chores.
What is OHPL?
A 2017 chemometrics method frozen in place, visited only when CRAN changes its documentation rules.
OHPL implements ordered homogeneity pursuit lasso, a variable selection method for high-dimensional spectroscopic data that groups correlated predictors before applying a lasso. The functional package was complete by 1.2 in 2017, when prediction, performance evaluation and simulated data generation functions were added. Every release since has touched documentation and packaging only.

modeltime.resample exists to keep backtesting working as tidymodels shifts underneath it.
◆ Current state
modeltime.resample runs time series cross-validation over modeltime models, returning per-resample predictions and accuracy plots. Version 0.3.0 is the substantive release in view: tune 2.0.0 compatibility, deterministic seeding via withr, guaranteed .predictions output, and clearer failures when resample fits break. The three releases before it are dependency chores.
◆ Where it's heading
Every entry here is compatibility work against something upstream — hardhat 1.0.0, workflows regression mode, then tune 2.0.0 twice. The 0.3.0 notes show a second concern emerging alongside it: making failures legible, with .notes on failed fits, actionable errors from unnest_modeltime_resamples(), and fallback logic when prediction columns go missing across versions. Reproducibility gets the same treatment through explicit seeding.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next release to track the next tidymodels breaking change, with any new work continuing on error reporting rather than resampling strategies.
OHPL
0.0ANALYTICS
A 2017 chemometrics method frozen in place, visited only when CRAN changes its documentation rules.
◆ Current state
OHPL implements ordered homogeneity pursuit lasso, a variable selection method for high-dimensional spectroscopic data that groups correlated predictors before applying a lasso. The functional package was complete by 1.2 in 2017, when prediction, performance evaluation and simulated data generation functions were added. Every release since has touched documentation and packaging only.
◆ Where it's heading
This is a published-method package in the archival phase: the algorithm is fixed, the paper is cited, and the maintainer keeps it installable. The releases read as a timeline of R packaging conventions rather than of the method — tidyverse code style in 2019, roxygen2 Markdown and bibentry() in 2024, Rd HTML validation in 2026. Gaps of two to five years between releases are normal here.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next release whenever CRAN introduces another documentation or packaging check; there is no indication the method itself will be extended.
