<h2 class="hasAnchor">
<a href="#major-changes" class="anchor"></a>Major changes</h2>
<ul>
<li><p>The title was changed to <code>Kinetic evaluations of chemical degradation data</code></p></li>
<li><p><code>plot.mkinfit</code>: Add the possibility to show fits (and residual plots if requested) separately for the observed variables</p></li>
<li><p><code>plot.mkinfit</code>: Add the possibility to show the chi2 error levels in the plot, similar to the way they are shown in <code>plot.mmkin</code></p></li>
<li><p><code>plot_sep</code>: Add this function as a convenience wrapper for plotting observed variables of mkinfit objects separately, with chi2 error values and residual plots.</p></li>
<li><p>Vignettes: The main vignette <code>mkin</code> was converted to R markdown and updated. The other vignettes were also updated to show current improved functionality.</p></li>
<li><p>The function <code>add_err</code> was added to the package, making it easy to generate simulated data using an error model based on the normal distribution</p></li>

<div id="minor-changes-1" class="section level2">
<h2 class="hasAnchor">
<a href="#minor-changes-1" class="anchor"></a>Minor changes</h2>
<ul>

<li><p><code>summary.mkinfit</code>: Give a warning message when the covariance matrix can not be obtained.</p></li>
<li><p>A test has been added to containing a corresponding edge case to check that the warnings are correctly issued and the fit does not terminate.</p></li>
<li><p><code>plot.mmkin</code>: Round the chi2 error value to three significant digits, instead of two decimal digits.</p></li>
<li><p><code>mkinfit</code>: Return the <code>err</code> values used on weighted fits as a column named <code>err</code>.

<h2 class="hasAnchor">

<ul>
<li><p><code>endpoints</code>: When the name of a substance degrading to a metabolite (e.g. a parent compound) used in the model formulation ended in the letter <code>f</code>, some rate parameters could be listed as formation fractions with mixed up names. These would also appear in the summary.</p></li>
<li><p><code>mkinfit</code>: Check for all observed variables when checking if the user tried to fix formation fractions when fitting them using ilr transformation.</p></li>

<ul>
<li><p><code><a href="../reference/summary.mkinfit.html">summary.mkinfit()</a></code>: A one-sided t-test for significant difference of untransformed parameters from zero is now always shown, based on the assumption of normal distribution for estimators of all untransformed parameters. Use with caution, as this assumption is unrealistic e.g. for rate constants in these nonlinear kinetic models.</p></li>
<li><p>If a compiler (gcc) is installed, use a version of the differential equation model compiled from C code, which is a huge performance boost for models where only the deSolve method works.</p></li>

<a href="#new-features-4" class="anchor"></a>New features</h2>
<ul>
<li><p>The number of degrees of freedom is difficult to define in the case of ilr transformation of formation fractions. Now for each source compartment the number of ilr parameters (=number of optimised parameters) is divided by the number of pathways to metabolites (=number of affected data series) which leads to fractional degrees of freedom in some cases.</p></li>
<li><p>The default for the initial value for the first state value is now taken from the mean of the observations at time zero, if available.</p></li>
<li><p>The kinetic model can alternatively be specified with a shorthand name for parent only degradation models, e.g. <code>SFO</code>, or <code>DFOP</code>.</p></li>
<li><p>Optimisation method, number of model evaluations and time elapsed during optimisation are given in the summary of mkinfit objects.</p></li>
<li><p>The maximum number of iterations in the optimisation algorithm can be specified using the argument <code>maxit.modFit</code> to the mkinfit function.</p></li>
<li><p>mkinfit gives a warning when the fit does not converge (does not apply to SANN method). This warning is included in the summary.</p></li>

<a href="#bug-fixes-8" class="anchor"></a>Bug fixes</h2>
<ul>
<li><p>Avoid plotting an artifical 0 residual at time zero in <code>mkinresplot</code></p></li>
<li><p>In the determination of the degrees of freedom in <code>mkinerrmin</code>, formation fractions were accounted for multiple times in the case of parallel formation of metabolites. See the new feature described above for the solution.</p></li>
<li><p><code>transform_rates=FALSE</code> in <code>mkinfit</code> now also works for FOMC and HS models.</p></li>
<li><p>Initial values for formation fractions were not set in all cases.</p></li>
<li><p>No warning was given when the fit did not converge when a method other than the default Levenberg-Marquardt method <code>Marq</code> was used.</p></li>

<a href="#minor-changes-8" class="anchor"></a>Minor changes</h2>
<ul>
<li><p>Vignettes were rebuilt to reflect the changes in the summary method.</p></li>
<li><p>Algorithm <code>Pseudo</code> was excluded because it needs user-defined parameter limits which are not supported.</p></li>
<li><p>Algorithm <code>Newton</code> was excluded because of its different way to specify the maximum number of iterations and because it does not appear to provide additional benefits.</p></li>

<li><p>The vignette FOCUS_Z has been simplified to use formation fractions with turning off the sink, and slightly amended to use the new versions of DT50 values calculated since mkin 0.9-29.</p></li>
<li><p>All vignettes have been rebuilt so they reflect all changes.</p></li>
<li><p>The ChangeLog was renamed to NEWS.md and the entries were converted to markdown syntax compatible with the <code>tools::news()</code> function built into R.</p></li>
<li><p>The test suite was overhauled. Tests of the DFOP and SFORB models with dataset FOCUS_2006_A were removed, as they were too much dependent on the optimisation algorithm and/or starting parameters, because the dataset is SFO (compare kinfit vignette).</p></li>
<li><p>Also, the Schaefer complex case can now be fitted using formation fractions, and with the ‘Port’ optimisation method we also fit A2 in the same way as published in the Piacenza paper.</p></li>
<li><p>Some more checks were introduced to <code><a href="../reference/mkinfit.html">mkinfit()</a></code>, leading to warnings or stopping execution if unsupported combinations of methods and parameters are requested.</p></li>

<ul>
<li><p>Get rid of the optimisation step in <code>mkinerrmin</code> - this was unnecessary. Thanks to KinGUII for the inspiration - actually this is equation 6-2 in FOCUS kinetics p. 91 that I had overlooked originally</p></li>
<li><p>Fix <code>plot.mkinfit</code> as it passed graphical arguments like main to the solver</p></li>
<li><p>Do not use <code>plot=TRUE</code> in <code><a href="../reference/mkinfit.html">mkinfit()</a></code> example</p></li>
<li><p>The first successful fits in the not so simple GUI</p></li>
<li><p>Fix iteratively reweighted least squares for the case of many metabolites</p></li>
<li><p>Unify naming of initial values of state variables</p></li>
<li><p>Unify naming in dataframes of optimised and fixed parameters in the summary</p></li>
<li><p>Show the weighting method for residuals in the summary</p></li>
<li><p>Correct the output of the data in the case of manual weighting</p></li>
<li><p>Implement IRLS assuming different variances for observed variables</p></li>
<li><p>Do not use 0 values at time zero for chi2 error level calculations. This is the way it is done in KinGUII and it makes sense. It does impact the chi2 error levels in the output. Generally they seem to be lower for metabolites now, presumably because the mean of the observed values is higher</p></li>
