Arguments

`y`	Outcome variable. A character vector containing the column names of the outcome variable. A character scalar containing the column name of the outcome variable in `survey`.
`L1.x`	Individual-level covariates. A character vector containing the column names of the individual-level variables in `survey` and `census` used to predict outcome `y`. Note that geographic unit is specified in argument `L2.unit`.
`L2.x`	Context-level covariates. A character vector containing the column names of the context-level variables in `survey` and `census` used to predict outcome `y`. To exclude context-level variables, set `L2.x = NULL`.
`mrp.L2.x`	MRP context-level covariates. A character vector containing the column names of the context-level variables in `survey` and `census` to be used by the MRP classifier. The character vector empty if no context-level variables should be used by the MRP classifier. If `NULL` and `mrp` is set to `TRUE`, then MRP uses the variables specified in `L2.x`. Default is `NULL`. Note: For the empty MrP model, set `L2.x = NULL` and `mrp.L2.x = ""`.
`L2.unit`	Geographic unit. A character scalar containing the column name of the geographic unit in `survey` and `census` at which outcomes should be aggregated.
`L2.reg`	Geographic region. A character scalar containing the column name of the geographic region in `survey` and `census` by which geographic units are grouped (`L2.unit` must be nested within `L2.reg`). Default is `NULL`.
`L2.x.scale`	Scale context-level covariates. A logical argument indicating whether the context-level covariates should be normalized. Default is `TRUE`. Note that if set to `FALSE`, then the context-level covariates should be normalized prior to calling `auto_MrP()`.
`pcs`	Principal components. A character vector containing the column names of the principal components of the context-level variables in `survey` and `census`. Default is `NULL`.
`folds`	EBMA and cross-validation folds. A character scalar containing the column name of the variable in `survey` that specifies the fold to which an observation is allocated. The variable should contain integers running from `1` to `k + 1`, where `k` is the number of cross-validation folds. Value `k + 1` refers to the EBMA fold. Default is `NULL`. Note: if `folds` is `NULL`, then `ebma.size`, `k.folds`, and `cv.sampling` must be specified.
`bin.proportion`	Proportion of ideal types. A character scalar containing the column name of the variable in `census` that indicates the proportion of individuals by ideal type and geographic unit. Default is `NULL`. Note: if `bin.proportion` is `NULL`, then `bin.size` must be specified.
`bin.size`	Bin size of ideal types. A character scalar containing the column name of the variable in `census` that indicates the bin size of ideal types by geographic unit. Default is `NULL`. Note: ignored if `bin.proportion` is provided, but must be specified otherwise.
`survey`	Survey data. A `data.frame` whose column names include `y`, `L1.x`, `L2.x`, `L2.unit`, and, if specified, `L2.reg`, `pcs`, and `folds`.

`ebma.size`	EBMA fold size. A number in the open unit interval indicating the proportion of respondents to be allocated to the EBMA fold. Default is `1/3`. Note: ignored if `folds` is provided, but must be specified otherwise.

Note: ignored if `folds` is provided, but must be specified otherwise.
`loss.unit`	Loss function unit. A character-valued scalar indicating whether performance loss should be evaluated at the level of individual respondents (`individuals`), geographic units (`L2 units`) or at both levels. Default is `c("individuals", "L2 units")`. With multiple loss units, parameters are ranked for each loss unit and the loss unit with the lowest rank sum is chosen. Ties are broken according to the order in the search grid.
`loss.fun`	Loss function. A character-valued scalar indicating whether prediction loss should be measured by the mean squared error (`MSE`), the mean absolute error (`MAE`), binary cross-entropy (`cross-entropy`), mean squared false error (`msfe`), the f1 score (`f1`), or a combination thereof. Default is `c("MSE", "cross-entropy","msfe", "f1")`. With multiple loss functions, parameters are ranked for each loss function and the parameter combination with the lowest rank sum is chosen.
