pomp version 3.6 has been released to CRAN and will be available soon at a mirror near you. This release features improvements in the package manual, a few bug fixes, and some feature upgrades.
Highlights include:
- Improvements to the package manual, including more examples, richer cross-linking, and better organization.
- When
simulateis called withformat="data.frame"andinclude.data=TRUE, the interpolated covariates are now included in the data frame that is returned. - Stateful objective functions created by
traj_objfun,nlf_objfun,probe_objfun, andspect_objfunnow have default arguments. In particular, the default is argument is a zero-length numeric vector. Calling such a function with no arguments is valid if and only if the objective function was created with no variables to estimate (emptyest). - The stateful objective function created by
traj_objfunhas been refactored so that it is independent oftrajectory. This change is invisible to the user, but lays the groundwork for future changes intrajectory. - The workhorse function
flownow has default arguments. - The
statesandobsmethods now work for lists ofpompobjects (listies). - A bug in
rpriorarising with integer-valued return vectors has been fixed.
