Package AquaEnv updated to version 1.0-3 with previous version 1.0-2 dated 2011-04-06

Title: AquaEnv - an integrated development toolbox for aquatic chemical model generation
Description: AquaEnv is an integrated development toolbox for aquatic chemical model generation focused on (ocean) acidification and CO2 air-water exchange. It contains all elements necessary to model the pH, the related CO2 air-water exchange, as well as aquatic acid-base chemistry in general for an arbitrary marine, estuarine or freshwater system. Also chemical batches can be modelled. Next to the routines necessary to calculate desired information, AquaEnv also contains a suite of tools to visualize this information. Furthermore, AquaEnv can not only be used to build dynamic models of aquatic systems, but it can also serve as a simple desktop tool for the experimental aquatic chemist to generate and visualize all possible derived information from a set of measurements with one single easy to use R function. Additionally, the sensitivity of the system to variations in the input variables can be visualized. The corresponding publication in Aquatic Geochemistry can be found at http://www.springerlink.com/content/l4747417w0k50463/

Package rpf updated to version 0.3 with previous version 0.2 dated 2012-08-06

Title: Response Probability Functions
Description: The purpose of this package is to factor out logic and math common to Item Response Theory fitting, diagnostics, and analysis. It is envisioned as core support code suitable for more specialized IRT packages to build upon. A version 1.0 will offer optimized, low-level functions to map parameters to response probabilities for a wide variety of dichotomous and polytomous item models.

Package ptw updated to version 1.0-4 with previous version 1.0-3 dated 2012-07-26

Title: Parametric Time Warping
Description: Parametric Time Warping aligns patterns, i.e. it aims to put corresponding features at the same locations. The algorithm searches for an optimal polynomial describing the warping. It is possible to align one sample to a reference, several samples to the same reference, or several samples to several references. One can choose between calculating individual warpings, or one global warping for a set of samples and one reference. Two optimization criteria are implemented: RMS (Root Mean Square error) and WCC (Weighted Cross Correlation).

Package aspace updated to version 3.1 with previous version 3.0 dated 2011-03-31

Title: A collection of functions for estimating centrographic statistics and computational geometries for spatial point patterns
Description: A collection of functions for computing centrographic statistics (e.g., standard distance, standard deviation ellipse, standard deviation box) for observations taken at point locations. Separate plotting functions have been developed for each measure. Users interested in writing results to ESRI shapefiles can do so by using results from aspace functions as inputs to the convert.to.shapefile and write.shapefile functions in the shapefiles library. The aspace library was originally conceived to aid in the analysis of spatial patterns of travel behaviour (see Buliung and Remmel, 2008). Major changes in the current version include (1) removal of dependencies on several external libraries (e.g., gpclib, maptools, sp), (2) the separation of plotting and estimation capabilities, (3) reduction in the number of functions, and (4) expansion of analytical capabilities with additional functions for descriptive analysis and visualization (e.g., standard deviation box, centre of minimum distance, central feature).

Title: Bayesian thresholds mixed-effects models for categorial data
Author: Fabio Mathias Correa and Julio Silvio de Souza Bueno Filho
Maintainer: Fabio Mathias Correa
Description: This library fits a linear mixed model for ordinal categorical responses using Bayesian inference via Monte Carlo Markov Chains. Default is Nandran & Chen algorithm using Gaussian link function and saving just the summaries of the chains. Among the options, package allow for two other options of algorithms, for using Student's "t" link function and for saving the full chains.

New package aftgee with initial version 0.3-5
Package: aftgee
Type: Package
Title: Accelerated Failure Time Model with Generalized Estimating Equations
Version: 0.3-5
Date: 2012-08-01
Author: Sy Han Chiou, Sangwook Kang, Jun Yan
Maintainer: Sy Han Chiou
Description: This package features both rank-based estimates and least square estimates to the Accelerated Failure Time (AFT) model. For rank-based estimation, it provides approaches that include the computatonally efficent Gehan's weight and the general's weight such as the logrank weight. For the least square estimation, the estimating equation is solved with Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE). Moreover, in multivariate cases, the dependence working correlation strcture can be specified in GEE's setting.
