Package rNOMADS updated to version 2.1.0 with previous version 2.0.4 dated 2014-10-30

Title: An Interface to the NOAA Operational Model Archive and Distribution System
Description: An interface to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Operational Model Archive and Distribution System (NOMADS) that allows R users to quickly and efficiently download global and regional weather model data for processing. rNOMADS currently supports a variety of models ranging from global weather data to an altitude of 40 km, to high resolution regional weather models, to wave and sea ice models. It can also retrieve archived NOMADS models. rNOMADS can retrieve binary data in grib format as well as import ascii data directly into R by interfacing with the GrADS-DODS system.

Package Storm updated to version 1.2 with previous version 1.1 dated 2014-05-22

Title: Write Storm Bolts in R using the Storm Multi-Language Protocol.
Description: Storm is a distributed real-time computation system. Similar to how Hadoop provides a set of general primitives for doing batch processing, Storm provides a set of general primitives for doing real-time computation. Storm includes a "Multi-Language" (or "Multilang") Protocol to allow implementation of Bolts and Spouts in languages other than Java. This R extension provides implementations of utility functions to allow an application developer to focus on application-specific functionality rather than Storm/R communications plumbing.

Package granovaGG updated to version 1.3 with previous version 1.2 dated 2012-09-04

Title: Graphical Analysis of Variance Using ggplot2
Description: This collection of functions in granovaGG provides what we call elemental graphics for display of anova results. The term elemental derives from the fact that each function is aimed at construction of graphical displays that afford direct visualizations of data with respect to the fundamental questions that drive the particular anova methods. This package represents a modification of the original granova package; the key change is to use ggplot2, Hadley Wickham's package based on Grammar of Graphics concepts (due to Wilkinson). The main function is granovagg.1w (a graphic for one way anova); two other functions (granovagg.ds and granovagg.contr) are to construct graphics for dependent sample analyses and contrast-based analyses respectively. (The function granova.2w, which entails dynamic displays of data, is not currently part of granovaGG.) The granovaGG functions are to display data for any number of groups, regardless of their sizes (however, very large data sets or numbers of groups can be problematic). For granovagg.1w a specialized approach is used to construct data-based contrast vectors for which anova data are displayed. The result is that the graphics use a straight line to facilitate clear interpretations while being faithful to the standard effect test in anova. The graphic results are complementary to standard summary tables; indeed, numerical summary statistics are provided as side effects of the graphic constructions. granovagg.ds and granovagg.contr provide graphic displays and numerical outputs for a dependent sample and contrast-based analyses. The graphics based on these functions can be especially helpful for learning how the respective methods work to answer the basic question(s) that drive the analyses. This means they can be particularly helpful for students and non-statistician analysts. But these methods can be of assistance for work-a-day applications of many kinds, as they can help to identify outliers, clusters or patterns, as well as highlight the role of non-linear transformations of data. In the case of granovagg.1w and granovagg.ds several arguments are provided to facilitate flexibility in the construction of graphics that accommodate diverse features of data, according to their corresponding display requirements. See the help files for individual functions.

Package FeatureHashing updated to version 0.8 with previous version 0.7 dated 2014-12-21

Title: Creates a Model Matrix via Feature Hashing With a Formula Interface
Description: Feature hashing, also called as the hashing trick, is a method to transform features to vector. Without looking up the indices in an associative array, it applies a hash function to the features and uses their hash values as indices directly. The method of feature hashing in this package was proposed in Weinberger et. al. (2009). The hashing algorithm is the murmurhash3 from the digest package. Please see the README.md for more information.

Package EnsembleCV updated to version 0.7.1 with previous version 0.7 dated 2014-11-25

Title: Extensible Package for Cross-Validation-Based Integration of Base Learners
Description: This package extends the base classes and methods of EnsembleBase package for cross-validation-based integration of base learners. Default implementation calculates average of repeated CV errors, and selects the base learner / configuration with minimum average error. The package takes advantage of the file method provided in EnsembleBase package for writing estimation objects to disk in order to circumvent RAM bottleneck. Special save and load methods are provided to allow estimation objects to be saved to permanent files on disk, and to be loaded again into temporary files in a later R session. The package can be extended, e.g. by adding variants of the current implementation.
