Version 4.4 of pomp is now on CRAN and coming soon to a mirror near you. This release contains a few changes to the user interface. Highlights include:
- The new function
wquant
computes weighted quantiles. - The precise order in which the
pmcmc
function computes prior and likelihood of furnished and proposed parameters has changed slightly. This prevents proposals that are incompatible with the prior from being passed topfilter
and forestalls an associated class of errors. As a consequence of this change,pmcmc
computations using the new version will differ very slightly from previous computations, even with the RNG seed fixed at its previous values. - There is now a C interface to the
bspline_eval
function. See the pomp C API documentation for details. - The
bspline.basis
function now takes the optional argumentrg
which allows one to specify the range over which the basis will be constructed. By default, this isrange(x)
, which agrees with the behavior in earlier versions.
In addition, there are some small improvements to the manual.
