Package rattle updated to version 2.5.11 with previous version 2.5.7 dated 2009-11-29

Author: Graham Williams
Title: A graphical user interface for data mining in R using GTK
Description: Rattle (the R Analytic Tool To Learn Easily) provides a Gnome (RGtk2) based interface to R functionality for data mining. The aim is to provide a simple and intuitive interface that allows a user to quickly load data from a CSV file (or via ODBC), transform and explore the data, build and evaluate models, and export models as PMML (predictive modelling markup language) or as scores. All of this with knowing little about R. All R commands are logged and commented through the log tab and so available to the user as a script file or as an aide to the user to interact directly with R itself. Rattle also exports a number of utility functions and the graphical user interface, invoked as rattle(), does not need to be run to deploy these.

Package pmml updated to version 1.2.21 with previous version 1.2.20 dated 2009-11-04

Author: Graham Williams, Michael Hahsler (arules), Zementis Inc, Hemant Ishwaran, Udaya B. Kogalur, Rajarshi Guha
Title: Generate PMML for various models
Description: The Predictive Modelling Markup Language (PMML) is a language for representing models, in an application independent way. Such models can then be loaded into other applications supporting PMML, including ADAPA from Zementis, Teradata Warehouse Miner and IBM's DB2. The package provides a generic pmml function to generate pmml for an object. Using a S3 generic function the approriate method for the class of the supplied object is dispatched. The package currently supports the export of PMML for linear regression, SVMs, rpart classification trees, randomSurvivalForest forest models, and kmeans clusters. This package is part of the Rattle toolkit.

Package logcondens updated to version 1.3.5 with previous version 1.3.4 dated 2009-06-05

Author: Kaspar Rufibach and Lutz Duembgen
Title: Estimate a Log-Concave Probability Density from iid Observations
Description: Given independent and identically distributed observations X(1), ..., X(n), this package allows to compute a concave, piecewise linear function phi on [X(1), X(n)] with knots only in {X(1), X(2), ..., X(n)} such that L(phi) = sum_{i=1}^n W(i)*phi(X(i)) - int_{X(1)}^{X(n)} exp(phi(x)) dx is maximal, for some weights W(1), ..., W(n) s.t. sum_{i=1}^n W(i) = 1. According to the results in Duembgen and Rufibach (2009), this function phi maximizes the ordinary log-likelihood sum_{i=1}^n W(i)*phi(X(i)) under the constraint that phi is concave. The corresponding function exp(phi) is a log-concave probability density. Two algorithms are offered to compute the estimator: An active set algorithm and one based on the pool-adjacent-violaters algorithm. In addition, we provide functions to compute (1) the value of the density and distribution function estimate at a given point (2) a smoothed log-concave density estimator (3) the characterizing functions of the estimator and (4) to sample from the estimated distribution. Finally, two datasets that have been used to illustrate log-concave density estimation are made available.
