-<!--
-
-### **Objective**
-
-Our goal is to:
-
-1. Use raw MIC values to predict whether a bacterial isolate produces ESBL.
-2. Apply AMR-aware preprocessing in a `tidymodels` recipe.
-3. Train a classification model and evaluate its predictive performance.
-
-### **Data Preparation**
-
-We use the `esbl_isolates` dataset that comes with the AMR package.
-
-```{r}
-# Load required libraries
-library(AMR)
-library(tidymodels)
-
-# View the esbl_isolates data set
-esbl_isolates
-
-# Prepare a binary outcome and convert to ordered factor
-data <- esbl_isolates %>%
-  mutate(esbl = factor(esbl, levels = c(FALSE, TRUE), ordered = TRUE))
-```
-
-**Explanation:**
-
-- `esbl_isolates`: Contains MIC test results and ESBL status for each isolate.
-- `mutate(esbl = ...)`: Converts the target column to an ordered factor for classification.
-
-### **Defining the Workflow**
-
-#### 1. Preprocessing with a Recipe
-
-We use our `step_mic_log2()` function to log2-transform MIC values, ensuring that MICs are numeric and properly scaled. All MIC predictors can easily and agnostically selected using the new `all_mic_predictors()`:
-
-```{r}
-# Split into training and testing sets
-set.seed(123)
-split <- initial_split(data)
-training_data <- training(split)
-testing_data <- testing(split)
-
-# Define the recipe
-mic_recipe <- recipe(esbl ~ ., data = training_data) %>%
-  remove_role(genus, old_role = "predictor") %>%  # Remove non-informative variable
-  step_mic_log2(all_mic_predictors()) #%>%         # Log2 transform all MIC predictors
- # prep()
-
-mic_recipe
-```
-
-**Explanation:**
-
-- `remove_role()`: Removes irrelevant variables like genus.
-- `step_mic_log2()`: Applies `log2(as.numeric(...))` to all MIC predictors in one go.
-- `prep()`: Finalises the recipe based on training data.
-
-#### 2. Specifying the Model
-
-We use a simple logistic regression to model ESBL presence, though recent models such as xgboost ([link to `parsnip` manual](https://parsnip.tidymodels.org/reference/details_boost_tree_xgboost.html)) could be much more precise.
-
-```{r}
-# Define the model
-model <- logistic_reg(mode = "classification") %>%
-  set_engine("glm")
-
-model
-```
-
-**Explanation:**
-
-- `logistic_reg()`: Specifies a binary classification model.
-- `set_engine("glm")`: Uses the base R GLM engine.
-
-#### 3. Building the Workflow
-
-```{r}
-# Create workflow
-workflow_model <- workflow() %>%
-  add_recipe(mic_recipe) %>%
-  add_model(model)
-
-workflow_model
-```
-
-### **Training and Evaluating the Model**
-
-```{r}
-# Fit the model
-fitted <- fit(workflow_model, training_data)
-
-# Generate predictions
-predictions <- predict(fitted, testing_data) %>%
-  bind_cols(testing_data)
-
-# Evaluate model performance
-our_metrics <- metric_set(accuracy, kap, ppv, npv)
-metrics <- our_metrics(predictions, truth = esbl, estimate = .pred_class)
-
-metrics
-```
-
-**Explanation:**
-
-- `fit()`: Trains the model on the processed training data.
-- `predict()`: Produces predictions for unseen test data.
-- `metric_set()`: Allows evaluating multiple classification metrics.
-
-It appears we can predict ESBL gene presence with a positive predictive value (PPV) of `r round(metrics$.estimate[3], 3) * 100`% and a negative predictive value (NPV) of `r round(metrics$.estimate[4], 3) * 100` using a simplistic logistic regression model.
-
-### **Visualising Predictions**
-
-We can visualise predictions by comparing predicted and actual ESBL status.
-
-```{r}
-library(ggplot2)
-
-ggplot(predictions, aes(x = esbl, fill = .pred_class)) +
-  geom_bar(position = "stack") +
-  labs(title = "Predicted vs Actual ESBL Status",
-       x = "Actual ESBL",
-       y = "Count") +
-  theme_minimal()
-```
-
-<!--
-
-### **Conclusion**
-
-In this example, we showcased how the new `AMR`-specific recipe steps simplify working with `<mic>` columns in `tidymodels`. The `step_mic_log2()` transformation converts ordered MICs to log2-transformed numerics, improving compatibility with classification models.
-
-This pipeline enables realistic, reproducible, and interpretable modelling of antimicrobial resistance data.

+## Example 2: Predicting AMR Over Time
 
 In this third example, we aim to predict antimicrobial resistance (AMR) trends over time using `tidymodels`. We will model resistance to three antibiotics (amoxicillin `AMX`, amoxicillin-clavulanic acid `AMC`, and ciprofloxacin `CIP`), based on historical data grouped by year and hospital ward.
