Bugfixes

arulesViz 1.5-0 (05/21/2021)
New features
ggplot2 is now the default engine for most plots.
grouped matrix visualization has now engine ggplot and htmlwidget.
conversion from associations to igraph are now exposed.
conversion from rules to matrix and groupedMatrix are now exposed.
"help" can now be specified for plot for method, engine, and control.
ruleExplorer lost parameter and gained sidebarWidth and chartHeight.
Bug Fixes
Fixed rounding bug in inspectDT.
Fixed jitter for scatter plot using engine plotly.
Fixed reordering for grouped matrix (engine plotly).
arulesViz 1.4-0 (03/05/2021)
New features
plot methods "scatterplots" and "matrix" have now engine ggplot2.
Removed functions
cleaned namespace. E.g., grid is now an import (instead of a dependency).
plotly_arules was removed from the interface. Use plot with engine "plotly" or "htmlwidget."
experimental support for iplots was removed.
Bug Fixes
fixed bug that prevented shading = NA in plotting method graph.
fixed some control parameter handling and added more examples for plot method graph.
fixed additional item shown in LHS for grouped matrix plot (reported by Tasos Fasoulis).
arulesViz 1.3-3 (05/20/2019)
New features
ruleExplorer got a cleaner interface and several new features.
Bug Fix
plot with method "paracoord" works now also with a single item in the LHS.
arulesViz 1.3-2 (12/04/2018)
Bug Fix
ruleExplorer now checks for an excessive number of items so shiny does not freeze.
plot with method matrix: control option reorder = "similarity" works now again.
arulesViz 1.3-1 (04/23/2018)
New features
ruleExplorer: interactive visualization with shiny was added.
plot method matrix now supports different reordering methods: 'none',
'measure', 'support/confidence', 'similarity'. The default is measure,
the measure used for shading.
measure and shading now auto-completes measure names.
Changes
plotly_arules is deprecated use plot with engine = "plotly" instead
Bug Fix
Fixed problem with quality measures (offset of 1) when creating igraph
graphs (reported by sostahl).
arulesViz 1.3-0 (09/07/2017)
New features
Introduced engine parameter for plot which can be used to create htmlWidgets.
Matrices and scatterplots use plotly and graphs are plotted
using visNetwork.
Changes
Some work was done on unifying the interface for plot more resulting in a
slightly changed order of parameters.
Parameter interactive is now deprecated and will be removed in future
releases. Use engine = "interactive" or engine = "htmlWidget"
(where available).
matrix-based visualization: reordering now tries to order by measure of
interestingness. The plot now uses shading instead of measure.
method graph does not support type anymore. Only items are now supported as
vertices.
Bug Fix
Fixed item labels order in reordered parallel coordinates plot
(reported by Yvi24).
arulesViz 1.2-1 (03/12/2017)
New features
plot method "grouped" now shows the most interesting items instead of the
most frequent items to represent antecedents. Also, if more than 10 RHS
items are found, then only the 10 most important are shown (see control
argument rhs_max).
arules_plotly uses now signif instead of round for quality measures.
arules_plotly implements now jitter to reduce overplotting (defaults
to .1 if overplotting would occur).
arules_plotly shows correct rule indices for too large rule sets.
scatterplot also defaults jitter to .2 if overplotting would occur.
scatterplot now handles Inf with a warning.
arulesViz 1.2-0 (10/02/2016)
improved graphical parameters for the grouped matrix plot.
default color scheme is now a grey-red ramp.
added inspectDT for interactive rules inspection using package DT.
added plotly_arules, interactive plots with plotly.
arulesViz 1.1-1 (04/10/2016)
plot method ordered now passes control arguments on correctly.
arulesViz 1.1-0 (12/13/2015)
abbreviate has been moved to arules.
fixed bug in grouped plots when the quality of many rules is identical.
plots use now heat colors.
scatter plots use now for lift zlim starting at 1.
arulesViz 1.0-4 (09/15/2015)
fixed empty LHS problem in grouped plot (reported by Andrew Collier)
Updated for arules version 1.2.0
arulesViz 1.0-2 (6/29/2015)
fixed imports from non-base standard packages.
plot (graph) now honors font family set via par().
(Bug reported by May Yang)
igraph: Updated NAMESPACE since igraph introduced functions with
names that clash with arules and seriation.
Transitioned to igraphs new layout me# Chanism.
itemsets: scatterplot is now also defaut for itemsets.
