Package vtreat updated to version 0.5.16 with previous version 0.5.14 dated 2015-09-06

Title: Simple Variable Treatment
Description: Prepares variables so that data has fewer exceptional cases, making it easier to safely use models in production. Common problems 'vtreat' defends against: Inf, NA, too many categorical values, rare categorical values, new categorical values (levels seen during application, but not during training). 'vtreat::prepare' should be used as you would use 'model.matrix'.

New package ESKNN with initial version 1.0
Package: ESKNN
Type: Package
Title: Ensemble of Subset of K-Nearest Neighbours Classifiers for Classification and Class Membership Probability Estimation
Version: 1.0
Date: 2015-09-13
Author: Asma Gul, Aris Perperoglou, Zardad Khan, Osama Mahmoud, Werner Adler, Miftahuddin Miftahuddin, and Berthold Lausen
Maintainer: Asma Gul <agul@essex.ac.uk>
Description: Functions for classification and group membership probability estimation are given. The issue of non-informative features in the data is addressed by utilizing the ensemble method. A few optimal models are selected in the ensemble from an initially large set of base k-nearest neighbours (KNN) models, generated on subset of features from the training data. A two stage assessment is applied in selection of optimal models for the ensemble in the training function. The prediction functions for classification and class membership probability estimation returns class outcomes and class membership probability estimates for the test data. The package includes measure of classification error and brier score, for classification and probability estimation tasks respectively.
