New versions 2.3 of our distr-family of packages are now
available on CRAN.
(i.e.; startupmsg, SweaveListingUtils,
distr, distrEx, distrDoc, distrEllipse,
distrMod, distrSim, distrTEst, distrTeach)
Most importantly, we have included:
+ a quasi-MC trick by Nataliya Horbenko to better produce
image distributions under complicated, not necessarily
monotone transformations
+ enhanced function qqplot
+ (enhanced) support for GEV distribution
+ new functional kMad
+ as well as several bug fixes
For more details see the corresponding NEWS files
(e.g. news(package = "distr")
or using function NEWS from package startupmsg
i.e. NEWS("distr")).
We are looking forward to getting your RFEs, bug reports
or simple feedback,
Best,
Peter, Matthias, Nataliya

New versions 0.8 of our RobASt-family of packages are now
available on CRAN.
(i.e.; RandVar, RobAStBase, ROptEst,
RobLox, ROptEstOld, ROptEstTS, RobRex,
RobLoxBioC)
Most importantly, we have included:
+ a quasi-MC trick by Nataliya Horbenko to better produce
random variables under complicated not necessarily
monotone transformations
+ enhanced functions
infoPlot, (plots relative information used for coordinates
of a parameter estimator)
ddPlot, (distance-distance plot)
cniperPointPlot, (cniper concept for seemingly harmless
contamination behavior)
qqplot (now gets outlier corrected versions)
+ new risks: asAnscombe, asL1, asL4
for asymptotic L1 L4 risk, and optimal bias robust estimator,
to given efficiency loss in ideal model
+ new helper methods makeIC
to apply to functions or list of functions
for easily producing (suboptimal) ICs
+ new function getReq for two ICs IC1 and IC2
to compute a radius interval where IC1 is better
than IC2 acc. to G-Risk
+ new function getMaxIneff() to compute,
for any IC of class 'IC', the maximal inefficiency
for radius r varying in [0,Inf)
+ as well as several bug fixes
For more details see the corresponding NEWS files
(e.g. news(package = "RobAStBase")
or using function NEWS from package startupmsg
i.e. NEWS("RobAStBase")).
We are looking forward to getting your RFEs, bug reports
or simple feedback,
Best,
Peter, Matthias, Nataliya
