Package tm.plugin.webmining updated to version 1.3 with previous version 1.2.2 dated 2014-11-03

Title: Retrieve Structured, Textual Data from Various Web Sources
Description: Facilitate text retrieval from feed formats like XML (RSS, ATOM) and JSON. Also direct retrieval from HTML is supported. As most (news) feeds only incorporate small fractions of the original text tm.plugin.webmining even retrieves and extracts the text of the original text source.

Package hapassoc updated to version 1.2-8 with previous version 1.2-7 dated 2014-08-25

Title: Inference of Trait Associations with SNP Haplotypes and Other Attributes using the EM Algorithm
Description: The following R functions are used for inference of trait associations with haplotypes and other covariates in generalized linear models. The functions are developed primarily for data collected in cohort or cross-sectional studies. They can accommodate uncertain haplotype phase and handle missing genotypes at some SNPs.

Package h5 updated to version 0.9.1 with previous version 0.9 dated 2015-04-26

Title: Interface to the 'HDF5' Library
Description: S4 Interface to the 'HDF5' library supporting fast storage and retrieval of R-objects like vectors, matrices and arrays to binary files in a language independent format. The 'HDF5' format can therefore be used as an alternative to R's save/load mechanism. Since h5 is able to access only subsets of stored data it can also handle data sets which do not fit into memory.

Package depend.truncation updated to version 2.3 with previous version 2.2 dated 2015-03-06

Title: Statistical Inference for Parametric and Semiparametric Models Based on Dependently Truncated Data
Description: Suppose that one can observe bivariate random variables (X, Y) only when X<=Y holds. Data (Xj, Yj), subject to Xj<=Yj, for all j=1,...,n, are called truncated data. Parametric approach (Emura & Konno 2012 Stat Papers), semiparametric approach (Chaieb et al. 2006 Biometrika; Emura et al. 2011 Sinica; Emura and Murotani 2015 TEST), nonparametric maximum likelihood approach (Emura & Wang 2012 JMVA), and regression approach (Emura and Wang 2015 AISM) are implemented for statistical inference on (X, Y), when X and Y are dependent. Also included is truncated data on the number of deaths at each year (1963-1980) for Japanese male centenarians (Emura and Murotani 2015 TEST).
