In datacloning/dcmle: Hierarchical Models Made Easy with Data Cloning

dcmle package version history

Version 0.4-1, July 4, 2023

• Removing undocumented .dcmle internal function from NAMESPACE after failed CRAN checks.

Version 0.4-0, July 3, 2023

• Spell checks.
• More coda methods added: cumuplot, HPDinterval, rejectionRate.
• Added Stan support.

Version 0.3-1, Jan 14, 2016

• str method for dcCodaMCMC class confusingly parsed the object as an mcmc.list (MCMClist) object. The true S4 nature of the object is now revealed (show method also relies on str).
• snowWrapper in dclone is now deprecated, NAMESPACE reflects this.

Version 0.3-0, Jan 12, 2016

• NAMESPACE changes triggered by CRAN checks.
• Fixing S4 methods related Rd changes.
• Fixing import issue with coda::as.mcmc.list generic. The coda:::as.mcmc.list.default is replicated as the internal .as_mcmc_list_default function.
• Fixing update method for dcmle class: R-devel gave NOTE, call was not properly updated in return object.
• dcexample function is defunct. The R-Forge example repo is moved to: https://github.com/datacloning/dcexamples

Version 0.2-4, Sep 27, 2013

• Reference for .GlobalEnv replaced by parent.frame() in sourceDcExample, also the assign.global argument is no longer used. The envir argument can be set instead. No assignment is made when envir=NULL.
• gelman.plot generic documentation added.
• dcmle: reflects changes in dclone due to addition of bugs.parfit and all partypes in dc.parfit.
• flavour slot can be 'jags', 'bugs', or any of 'winbugs', 'openbugs', 'brugs' referring to the program argument in bugs.*fit.
• Removed ::: to satisfy R 3.0.2 check.
• snow is not suggested in DESCRIPTION.

Version 0.2-3, Mar 1, 2013

• gsFit: gained flavour argument.
• gelman.plot: now implemented for dcmle classes as generic.

Version 0.2-2, Jul 6, 2012

• Inverse coercion methods (as.mcmc.list) failed with nvar=1 cases, it is now fixed.

Version 0.2-1, May 13, 2012

• Depends: R (>= 2.15.0). Old versions of R failed under MacOS and Windows (reported by Uwe Ligges).

Version 0.2-0, Apr 27, 2012

• Complete rework of the package internals, no user visible changes (except for coda type methods are now available without extra as.mcmc.list coercion, including plots).
• dcmle class replaces dcMle, new classes and methods added.

Version 0.1-6, Mar 22, 2012

• dcmle: cl=1 is now acceptable (defaults to NULL). Note that this behaviour is different from that is in dclone.

Version 0.1-5, Feb 25, 2012

• S4 methods compliance for R 2.15.0: importFrom(stats4, coef, confint, summary, vcov) added to namespace (reported by B Ripley).

Version 0.1-4, Jan 31, 2012

• sourceDcExample: topic is coerced to character.
• Documentation updated.
• NAMESPACE updated to export all classes, and import new functions from dclone.
• S4 summary method is now imported from stats4 and not redefined again.

Version 0.1-3, Jan 25, 2012

• Preparing for new release.
• Define S4 generic for 'summary'.

Version 0.1-2, Oct 18, 2011

• params slot can be list (to follow new dclone options).
• show/summary method for dcMle class got headings: Settings, Coefficients, Convergence.
• dcmle failed with initsfun when length(n.clones)==1 and n.clones>1: now fixed.
• dcmle checks for getOption("mc.cores") and uses it when cl=NULL and mc.cores > 1. This allows forking to happen automatically via the global option.

Version 0.1-1, Sep 29, 2011

• dcExample, sourceDcExample, listDcExample: new functions added to deal with examples from R-Forge.

Version 0.1-0, Sep 27, 2011

• main functions, classes, methods work
• dependencies and namespace figured out
• documentation is ready
