Package runjags updated to version 0.9.5-2 with previous version 0.9.5-1 dated 2009-10-15

Author: Matthew Denwood (funded as part of the DEFRA VTRI project 0101).
Title: Run Bayesian MCMC Models in the BUGS syntax from Within R
Description: A set of functions to allow any user specified model to be run in JAGS from within R, returning the MCMC chains as R objects. Includes functions to read external WinBUGS type textfiles, and allows several ways of automatically specifying model data from existing R objects or R functions. Also includes functions to automatically calculate model run length, autocorrealtion and Gelman Rubin statistic diagnostics for all models to simplify the process of achieving chain convergence. Designed for maximum compatibility with WinBUGS syntax, although minor modification to existing .bug files will be required. Requires Just Another Gibbs Sampler (JAGS) for most functions, see: http://www-fis.iarc.fr/~martyn/software/jags/

Package fingerprint updated to version 3.2 with previous version 3.1.2 dated 2009-02-23

Author: Rajarshi Guha
Title: Functions to operate on binary fingerprint data
Description: This package contains functions to manipulate binary fingerprints of arbitrary length. A fingerprint is represented by an object of S4 class 'fingerprint' which is internally represented a vector of integers, such that each element represents the position in the fingerprint that is set to 1. The bitwise logical functions in R are overridden so that they can be used directly with 'fingerprint' objects. A number of distance metrics are also available (many contributed by Michael Fadock). Fingerprints can be converted to Euclidean vectors (i.e., points on the unit hypersphere) and can also be folded using OR. Arbitrary fingerprint formats can be handled via line handlers. Currently handlers are provided for CDK, MOE and BCI fingerprint data.

New package equate with initial version 0.1-0
Package: equate
Version: 0.1-0
Date: 2009-10-30
Title: Traditional Methods for Test Score Equating
Author: Anthony Albano
Maintainer: Anthony Albano
Depends: R (>= 2.8.0)
Description: In educational and psychological measurement multiple forms of a test are often created, where forms are intended to be identical in difficulty and statistical characteristics. In the likely case that forms differ in difficulty, statistical methods of equating and linking allow for the conversion of scores on one form to the scale of another, essentially creating parallel forms. The equate package contains functions for traditional equating, including mean, linear, and equipercentile equating and methods for pre- and post-smoothing of score distributions.

Package GLDEX updated to version 1.0.3.3 with previous version 1.0.3.2 dated 2009-10-11

Author: Steve Su
Title: Fitting Single and Mixture of Generalised Lambda Distributions (RS and FMKL) using Discretised and Maximum Likelihood Methods
Description: The fitting algorithms considered in this package have two major objectives. One is to provide a smoothing device to fit distributions to data using the weight and unweighted discretised approach based on the bin width of the histogram. The other is to provide a definitive fit to the data set using the maximum likelihood estimation. Diagnostics on goodness of fit can be done via qqplots, KS-resample tests and comparing mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis of the data with the fitted distribution.

Description: This package provides the CDK libraries for use in the R environment. Given the size of the library itself, this package is not expected to change very frequently. To make use of the CDK within R, it is suggested that you use the rcdk package. Note that it is possible to directly interact with the CDK using rJava. However rcdk exposes functionality in a more idiomatic way

Package nodeHarvest updated to version 0.2 with previous version 0.1 dated 2009-10-12

Author: Nicolai Meinshausen
Title: Node Harvest for regression and classification
Description: Node harvest is a simple interpretable tree-like estimator for high-dimensional regression and classification. A few nodes are selected from an initially large ensemble of nodes, each associated with a positive weight. New observations can fall into one or several nodes and predictions are the weighted average response across all these groups. The package offers visualization of the estimator. Predictions can return the nodes a new observation fell into, along with the mean response of training observations in each node, offering a simple explanation of the prediction.
