In coxphSGD: Stochastic Gradient Descent log-Likelihood Estimation in Cox Proportional Hazards Model

coxphSGD 0.2.0

• 2017-07-04
• Version submitted to CRAN.
• Removed the yihui/rlp dependency and moved to regular roxygen2 structure of the package's documentation.
• Removed dependencies (imports) of assertthat, magrittr and reshape2 as it's better to have less dependencies in the fastly evolving software development world (backward incompatibilities).
• Provided README.md
• Cleaned naming convention of functions and parameters.
• Created the package website.

coxphSGD 0.1.0

• 2015-12-25 (released only on GitHub)
• Library was build with the experimental approach using yihui/rlp package for creating package structures and documentation only in the vignette document.
• In the root directory of the package one could found the master thesis (in polish), entitled Stochastic Gradient Descent Estimation in the Cox Proportional Hazards Model with Applications to The Cancer Genome Atlas Data. The package was the effect of tools written during the study.
• Package was equipped with the archivist like repository of R objects, where partial (and final results) of the analysis performed during my master thesis were stored.

The promotor of the master thesis was profesor Przemyslaw Biecek (Warsaw University of Technology), who provided many improvements and comments to the package and who had a great impact on my master thesis and the whole scientific career, which I deeply appreciate
