orthoMTL: Multi-Task Learning with Orthogonal Constraints
Fits regularised multi-task learning models where relationships
between tasks are controlled via orthogonality or disjoint-support constraints.
Supports regression, binary classification, and censored survival data.
In survival mode, time-to-event outcomes are converted into binary labels at
user-defined thresholds, enabling the discovery of features with time-varying
effects that standard proportional-hazards models cannot detect.
Implements the penalty described in Vervier et al. (2014)
