Output similar to ordinary regression for high dimensional data. The method allows testing of non-linear associations alongside feature selection. It also allows testing for "hinges" where associations change in strength and/or direction. It only includes features, for example linear effects of confounders or interactions where model fit is substantially improved. This model fit assessment usually uses cross validation.

Frequentist MARS is implemented in the earth package and the Bayesian counterpart in BASS (with extensions to the original method). I'm happy to talk further about the frequentist implementation, but (apart from knowing of its existence) I know next to nothing of the Bayesian version.
