News for Package RecordTest
Changes in Version 2.2.0 (06 August 2023)
NEW FEATURES
Implementation of "approximate" or "random" permutation tests with the argument
permutation.testin the functionschange.point,foster.test, andN.test. The tests use samples with repetition of permutations, they do not use all possible permutations. Unlike previous exact, asymptotic, or Monte Carlo tests, permutation tests still ensure test size by introducing a matrixXwith dependent columns as an argument.
MODIFICATIONS
References update for the new applied publication Castillo-Mateo, Cebrian and Asin (2023) <doi:10.1016/j.atmosres.2023.106934>.
-
RecordTest logo update.
BUG FIXES
Function
recordswhenplot = FALSEreturned the wrong backward record values. It returned the values of the forward series on the backward record times. This issue was fixed.Function
L.recordreturned a matrix instead of a list when all series had the same number of records. FunctionR.recordreturned incorrect output when all series had the same number of records or there were only one series. These issues were fixed and both functions return a list in any case.Function
series_untienow admitsNAorNaNvalues without returningNaN's.
Changes in Version 2.1.2 (15 March 2023)
MODIFICATIONS
-
‘CITATION’ and references update for the new JSS publication of Castillo-Mateo, Cebrian and Asin (2023) <doi:10.18637/jss.v106.i05>.
Changes in Version 2.1.1 (03 November 2022)
NEW FEATURES
New dataset
TX_Zaragoza29Fthat includes Zaragoza series with the observations from the 29th of February.Function
series_uncornow admits any test introduced as an argument to test correlation or dependence across columns. Default iscor.test, which is the test used in previous versions.
MODIFICATIONS
References update for the publication of Cebrian, Castillo-Mateo and Asin (2022) <doi:10.1007/s00477-021-02122-w> and Castillo-Mateo (2022) <doi:10.1007/s10651-022-00539-2>.
The ‘MANUAL’ help pages were updated.
Confidence intervals (CIs) are renamed to reference intervals (RIs) in the ‘MANUAL’ and legends for being a more appropriate definition for these intervals (no argument is modified).
BUG FIXES
Functions
N.plotandp.plotdisplayed all four types of records in the legend, even when only one type of record was plotted. Now the legend only shows the type of records that are plotted.
Changes in Version 2.1.0 (05 August 2021)
NEW FEATURES
New function
change.pointto perform the Castillo-Mateo change-point detection tests was added.Previously, if the series had
NAvalues, all the record indicators from that time tookNAvalue. This made the functions returnNAp-values, etc. Now theNAvalues are treated as non-records, i.e.,I_t = 0, unless they are the first observation, i.e.,I_1 = 1.-
recordsfunction only allowed to show points, now it also shows lines.
MODIFICATIONS
The three missing values of the
TX_Zaragozadataset now take the valueNA, in previous Versions these values were imputed. This change does not affect theZaragozaSeriesdataset.The ‘MANUAL’ help pages were updated.
The ‘VIGNETTES’ file was updated.
Changes in Version 2.0.0 (13 February 2021)
NEW FEATURES
New function
brown.methodto perform the the Brown's method in the (weighted)-number-of-records was added.New function
fisher.methodto perform Fisher's method was added.New function
R.recordto compute record values.New function
rcrmto generate random samples of the classical record model.New function
series_tiesto summarize the presence of record ties (or weak records) mainly due to rounding effects.New dataset
Olympic_records_200mwith record times and record values of the Olympic 200-meter race.New function
series_recordto apply the tools within RecordTest if only the record times are available and not the complete series.New argument
weakif weak records are also computed in functions that compute the record random variables:I.record,L.record,N.record, etc.
MODIFICATIONS
The ‘MANUAL’ help pages were updated.
The ‘VIGNETTES’ file was updated.
All functions have undergone a change in their arguments, providing new features in most cases.
The functions
foster.testandfoster.plotnow admit more statistics based on different combinations of records.The function
series_uncorhas change the criteria of considering the first and last columns uncorrelated, thus slightly different results can come from previous Versions. As new features it admits more types of uncorrelation and more arguments.The dataset
TX_Zaragozahas been updated with more data.The matrix
ZaragozaSerieshas more rows and one more column according to the changes inTX_Zaragozaandseries_uncor.Functions have been joined or renamed as follows:
From
L_global.testrenamed toglobal.test, and now a global statistic for different types of record can be computed for the tests with two-sided alternativesp.chisq.test,p.regression.test,lr.testandscore.test.From
N_normal.test,N_exactPB.testandP_exactPB.testjoint toN.test, and new features added.From
P_regression.testandP_regression.plotrenamed top.regression.testandp.plot, and new features added.From
P_chisq.testrenamed top.chisq.test.From
L_lr.testandL_lm.testrenamed tolr.testandscore.test.From
M.recordrenamed toS.record.
BUG FIXES
The p-values in Monte-Carlo and Poisson-Binomial tests were computed with the expression
P(X > X_0)instead ofP(X \ge X_0)in all previous Versions, this problem was fixed.Function
foster.plotshowed the evolution of theDstatistic improperly, this problem was fixed.
Changes in Version 1.0.1 (05 October 2020)
NEW FEATURES
The ‘README’ and ‘VIGNETTES’ files were added.
New function
foster.testto perform the Foster-Stuart and Diersen-Trenkler tests was added.New function
foster.plotto perform plots based on the Foster-Stuart and Diersen-Trenkler statistics was added.New function
L_global.testto perform likelihood ratio and Lagrange multiplier tests on record occurrence was added.New function
L_lm.testto perform Lagrange multiplier test on record occurrence was added.New function
series_untieto deal with record ties was added.Support for parallel computing was added in Monte Carlo functions:
L_global.test,L_lm.test,L_lr.test.
MODIFICATIONS
Functions removed:
dailymean.fun,dailysd.fun,N_joint.plot,N_joint.test,std.fun.Functions have been joined or renamed as follows:
From
I.recandI.rec.matrixjoined to the S3 methodI.record.From
L.recandL.rec.matrixjoined toL.record.From
M.recandP.recrenamed toM.recordandP.record, respectively.From
N.recandN.rec.matrixjoined toN.record.From
Nmean.recrenamed toNmean.record.From
DaySeries.fun,double.fun,mintime.cor.test,value.recrenamed toseries_split,series_double,series_uncor,records, respectively.From
L_lr.testandL_MC.testjoined toL_lr.test.
Data
ZaragozaSeries: now theseries_doublefunction has not been applied to it.
BUG FIXES
The p-value and statistic of
P_regression.testwas calculated incorrectly in Version 0.1.2, this problem was fixed.
