In geex: An API for M-Estimation

geex 1.1.1

• Removes ivpack dependency from additional examples vignette in order to get geex back on CRAN.
• Removes the internal compute_sum_of_list and compute_pairwise_sum_of_list functions from exports.

geex 1.1.0

• adds a Asolver argument to m_estimate to allow for using a different to compute the inverse of the A ("bread") matrix.

geex 1.0.11

• renames the geex-summary class to geex_summary
• adds ee_i (observed estimating function values) to the component object
• various other bug fixes

geex 1.0.5

• Added grab_design_levels to find all factor-levels in a design matrix. This output can then be passed to the xlev arg in model.matrix or more importantly through grab_psiFun for the models. This fixes issue 41.
• Notably, if this seems to work well, then perhaps grab_design_levels could be added to the body of grab_psiFun to automatically handle this issue.
• Edited binomial_integrand to hopefully handle singleton groups better. It will now attempt to coerce back to a one-row matrix before calling apply.

geex 1.0.4

• fixes issue when using grab_psiFUN for glm objects and non-grouped data.
• removes option to use weights with grab_psiFUN, as it was not clear that was implemented correctly.

geex 1.0.3

• adds basic examples for most functions, though to be sure, the vignettes provide more useful examples.

geex 1.0.2

• requires R >= 3.3

geex 1.0.1

• add a call slot to the S4 geex object. Now the update function can be used to update elements of an m_estimate call.

geex 1.0.0

• implements an S4 system throughout geex
• estimate_equations becomes m_estimate. See documentation for changes to arguments. Notably, eeFUN becomes estFUN
• make_eeFUN functions become grab_psiFUN
• speeds up the summation of list of matrices with compute_sum_of_list
• plus many more updates and vignettes

geex 0.3.0

• adds a weights argument to estimate_equations for faster computations with grouped data. See the weights vignette for a demonstration.

geex 0.2.2

• changes names of list items used in a corrections_list in estimate_equations. Each item of the correction_list must itself be a list at least one item: correctFUN. Additional arguments to correctFUN may be passed via correctFUN_control.

geex 0.2.1

• adds a vignette explaining how to use a different root finding algorithm via rootFUN argument in estimate_equations
• fixes issues where different rootFUNs would not work:
  • roots argument no longer needs to be set if compute_roots = TRUE. Instead, starting values are passed via the rootFUN_control list.
  • Removes the start argument from compute_eeroots; set this option in rootFUN_control.

geex 0.2.0

• overhauls which arguments are passed to estimate_equations and how these arguments are parsed internally. See this function's documentation for details
• adds geexex dataset for use in examples

geex 0.1.0

• the inital geex release
