CHANGES UP TO VERSION 1.1.54
Replace (direct) calls to Rf_error() with Rcpp:stop() (cf https://github.com/RcppCore/Rcpp/issues/1247).
Trivial code and doc tidying, and updated links to now public gitlab repository.
CHANGES UP TO VERSION 1.1.46
Resolve -Wsometimes-uninitialized, -Wformat-zero-length and -Wformat-security compiler warnings.
Resolve "lost braces" issue in a documentation page.
CHANGES UP TO VERSION 1.1.43
NEW FEATURES
Much faster init_grid() (and likely more minor gains in other functions too).
New init_grid(., maxmin) argument.
DEPENDENCIES
New dependency 'matrixStats'.
CHANGES UP TO VERSION 1.1.32
USER-LEVEL CHANGES
Checks of invalid input (and resulting screen output) adapted to non-Migraine usage.
DEPENDENCIES
'lbfgsb3' is replaced by 'lbfgsb3c' as a suggested package.
Requests a more recent (>= 3.1.0) version of 'spaMM'.
CHANGES UP TO VERSION 1.1.27
CORRECTED BUGS
Long-standing glitch that substantially slowed blackbox down (though with correct results).
CHANGES UP TO VERSION 1.1.25
USER-LEVEL CHANGES
(Migraine-specific) New composite parameters and profile computations for migration parameters.
Dependency on 'ff' package removed, assuming a recent version of spaMM (here >= 2.4.8).
Dependencies changed for parallel computations. See help("blackbox.options") for details.
CORRECTED BUGS
(Migraine-specific) writeFinalInfo() now correctly writes the results when sampleByResp() has not been run.
(Migraine-specific) CKrigcoefs() could fail when minSmoothness=maxSmoothness.
(Migraine-specific) user-given 'CovFnParam' were ignored.
(Migraine-specific) now computes Dgmu parameter only when Dg/2N is a parameter of the model (e.g. not a for a discrete change in pop size).
(Migraine-specific) resetCHull() handles input points in linear space of lower dimension than the number of fitted parameters, now avoiding a bug in the rare case where there are many profile points, all of them in such a space.
CHANGES UP TO VERSION 1.1.7
USER-LEVEL CHANGES
No user-level changes.
OTHER CHANGES
Changes for compatibility wth Rcpp::compileAttributes() in Rcpp >= 0.12.12
Other internal changes for compatibility with planned changes in other packages.
CHANGES UP TO VERSION 1.1.2
USER-LEVEL CHANGES
(Migraine-specific) Parallel computation is implemented for profile point computations.
CHANGES UP TO VERSION 1.1.0
USER-LEVEL CHANGES
Less primitive convergence diagnostics are implemented in bboptim().
(Migraine-specific) New mesures of ”goodness of prediction” implemented.
(Migraine-specific) add logscale for 1D profile plots
CORRECTED BUGS
blackbox.options(<new values>) did not return old values.
(Migraine-specific) Return code modified for consistency with documentation (but this does not really affect the analyses).
(Migraine-specific) variables names could be lost in generateNewPoints().
(Migraine-specific) Invalid requests by users for CIs for some composite variables could lead to an execution error.
OTHER CHANGES
Added native routine registration.
CHANGES UP TO VERSION 1.0.18
BUGS
More C++ portability issues fixed.
(Migraine-specific, without any impact on inferences) optimization convergence diagnostic (actually nloptr()'s return status) was missing from the output_...txt file, resulting in lines with different number of values.
(Migraine-specific) toCanonical() corrected to handle single-candidate input matrix.
(Migraine-specific) fixed parameter space issues in generateNewPoints() and canonize().
USER-LEVEL CHANGES
Modified init values of some smoothing parameters may change bboptim() results for rough response surfaces.
OTHER CHANGES
Some function definitions has been moved from the spaMM package to blackbox.
CHANGES UP TO VERSION 1.0.8
BUGS
(Migraine-specific) Wrong variable spaces in generateNewPoints() and toCanonical() corrected.
(Migraine-specific) Calls to Rf_error() removed from Rcpp code.
(Migraine-specific) An invalid cbind() that affected the generation of 'nextpoints' has been corrected.
(Migraine-specific) Within subHullWrapper(), the scdd() results with double precision are now checked and replaced by a computation with rational arithmetic if they are inaccurate.
(Migraine-specific) "samplingSpace=,Nb," has been broken for a long time. This is corrected.
(Migraine-specific) sampleNextPars() could stop when called with non-default 'samplingSpace'. This is corrected.
