Likewise for finding DT90 values. Also fit on the log scale to make the function more efficient. -### INTERNAL CHANGES +### Internal changes - `DESCRIPTION`, `NAMESPACE`, `R/*.R`: Import (from) stats, graphics and methods packages, and qualify some function calls for non-base packages installed with R to avoid NOTES made by R CMD check --as-cran with upcoming R versions. -## CHANGES in mkin VERSION 0.9-39 (2015-06-26) +## mkin 0.9-39 (2015-06-26) -### MAJOR CHANGES +### Major changes - New function `mmkin()`: This function takes a character vector of model shorthand names, or alternatively a list of mkinmod models, as well as a list of dataset as main arguments. It returns a matrix of mkinfit objects, with a row for each model and a column for each dataset. A subsetting method with single brackets is available. Fitting the models in parallel using the `parallel` package is supported. - New function `plot.mmkin()`: Plots single-row or single-column `mmkin` objects including residual plots. -### BUG FIXES +### Bug fixes - `mkinparplot()`: Fix the x axis scaling for rate constants and formation fractions that got confused by the introduction of the t-values of transformed parameters. -## CHANGES in mkin VERSION 0.9-38 (2015-06-24) +## mkin 0.9-38 (2015-06-24) -### MINOR CHANGES +### Minor changes - `vignettes/compiled_models.html`: Show the performance improvement factor actually obtained when building the vignette, as well as mkin version, some system info and the CPU model used for building the vignette. - `GNUMakefile`,`vignettes/*`: Clean up vignette generation and include table of contents in HTML vignettes. -### BUG FIXES +### Bug fixes - `mkinmod()`: When generating the C code for the derivatives, only declare the time variable when it is needed and remove the '-W-no-unused-variable' compiler flag as the C compiler used in the CRAN checks on Solaris does not know it. -## CHANGES in mkin VERSION 0.9-36 (2015-06-21) +## mkin 0.9-36 (2015-06-21) -### MAJOR CHANGES +### Major changes - `summary.mkinfit()`: 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. @@ -46,17 +50,17 @@ - `mkinfit()`: Set the default `solution_type` to `deSolve` when a compiled version of the model is present, except when an analytical solution is possible. -### MINOR CHANGES +### Minor changes - Added a simple showcase vignette with an evaluation of FOCUS example dataset D -## CHANGES in mkin VERSION 0.9-35 (2015-05-15) +## mkin 0.9-35 (2015-05-15) -### MAJOR CHANGES +### Major changes - Switch from RUnit to testthat for testing -### BUG FIXES +### Bug fixes - `mkinparplot()`: Avoid warnings that occurred when not all confidence intervals were available in the summary of the fit @@ -66,7 +70,7 @@ - `mkinparplot()`: Avoid warning in R CMD check about undeclared global variable `Lower` -### NEW FEATURES +### New features - `mkinfit()`: Report successful termination when quiet = FALSE.
