TransHDM: High-Dimensional Mediation Analysis via Transfer Learning

Provides a framework for high-dimensional mediation analysis using transfer learning. The main function TransHDM() integrates large-scale source data to improve the detection power of potential mediators in small-sample target studies. It addresses data heterogeneity via transfer regularization and debiased estimation while controlling the false discovery rate. The package also includes utilities for data generation (gen_simData_homo(), gen_simData_hetero()), baseline methods such as lasso() and dblasso(), sure independence screening via SIS(), and model diagnostics through source_detection(). The methodology is described in Pan et al. (2025) <doi:10.1093/bib/bbaf460>.
