Package psych updated to version 1.2.12 with previous version 1.2.8 dated 2012-09-07

Title: Procedures for Psychological, Psychometric, and Personality Research
Description: A number of routines for personality, psychometrics and experimental psychology. Functions are primarily for scale construction using factor analysis, cluster analysis and reliability analysis, although others provide basic descriptive statistics. Item Response Theory is done using factor analysis of tetrachoric and polychoric correlations. Functions for simulating particular item and test structures are included. Several functions serve as a useful front end for structural equation modeling. Graphical displays of path diagrams, factor analysis and structural equation models are created using basic graphics. Some of the functions are written to support a book on psychometrics as well as publications in personality research. For more information, see the personality-project.org/r webpage.

Package Benchmarking updated to version 0.23 with previous version 0.22 dated 2012-08-21

Title: Benchmark and frontier analysis using DEA and SFA
Description: The package contains methods to support frontier analysis. It covers Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). DEA is supported under different technology assumptions (fdh, vrs, drs, crs, irs, add/frh, and fdh+), and using different efficiency measures (input based, output based, hyperbolic graph, additive, super, and directional efficiency). Peers and slacks are available, partial price information can be included, and optimal cost, revenue and profit can be calculated. Evaluation of mergers is also supported. Methods for graphing the technology sets are also included. The package also support comparative methods based on Stochastic Frontier Analyses (SFA). In general, the methods can be used to solve not only standard models, but also many other model variants. The package complements the book, Bogetoft and Otto, Benchmarking with DEA, SFA, and R, Springer-Verlag, 2011, but can of course also be used as a stand-alone package.

Package pmml updated to version 1.2.33 with previous version 1.2.32 dated 2012-12-09

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 appropriate method for the class of the supplied object is dispatched. The package currently supports the export of PMML for linear regression, generalized linear regression, multinomial logistic regression, SVMs, rpart classification trees, randomSurvivalForest, randomForest, and kmeans clusters. This package is part of the Rattle toolkit.
