Zero MCMC iterations will be performed if the number of unique
particles is already >= minPart (adaptive number of MCMC steps)
Replaced the default uniform prior distribution for the peak
amplitudes with an exponential prior
Bug Fixes
Merged pull request from Rcpp team to use constant M_PI instead of
PI to support STRICT_R_HEADERS
Fixed issue with plots in Introduction vignette
Fixed broken link to EPSRC grants website (now uses UKRI Gateway to
Research)
Added package Hmisc to suggests to fix Undeclared package in Rd
xrefs NOTE on CRAN
Try-catch when computing Cholesky decomposition of the Gaussian
random walk variance-covariance matrix (fallback to diagonal matrix by
default)
Removed Travis CI from README, since builds have ceased on June 15,
2021
serrsBayes 0.4-2
New Features
MCMC iterations will stop when temp ESS reaches the total number of
particles (adaptive number of MCMC steps)
Added DOI from Zenodo to CITATION file.
Bug Fixes
Fixed issue with digits = 0 in vignettes (CRAN WARN)
Removed obsolete call to Rcpp::LdFlags() from
Makevars.win
Added fallback to boost MCMC acceptance rate if it falls below 15%
of proposals
Regenerated the datasets result.rda & result2.rda to adjust for
the new way of calculating FWHM
serrsBayes 0.4-1
New Features
Added example of fitSpectraSMC with informative priors
to the methanol vignette.
Bug Fixes
Removed the R package hyperSpec from Suggests because
it is no longer available on CRAN.
Fixed dependency on hyperSpec in Introduction vignette
due to new CRAN check. This also affects the TAMRA
dataset.
Fixed a rare bug in reweighting that could potentially result in an
infinite loop.
Peak locations are now constrained to lie within the range of
observed wavelengths.
Locations are sorted to preserve identifiability.
Fixed error in equations for FWHM in mixedVoigt &
getVoigtParam as well as in both vignettes.
serrsBayes 0.4-0
New Features
OpenMP implementation of mhUpdateVoigt provides around 3x
improvement in elapsed runtime
New vignette illustrates when to use the 3 functions
fitSpectraMCMC, fitSpectraSMC, and
fitVoigtPeaksSMC
New datasets methanol and TAMRA for use in
the vignettes
Debug output prints the means of the amplitudes of the peaks at each
SMC iteration
Bug Fixes
Fixed bug in fitVoigtPeaksSMC where it was using the
upper-triangular instead of lower-triangular Cholesky factorisation to
generate random-walk Metropolis proposals
Introduction vignette no longer attempts to download a .zip file
over HTTPS
Deleted unused Rcpp function randomWalkVoigt
serrsBayes 0.3-13
changed maintainer email address due to new academic
affiliation
hex sticker in README
serrsBayes 0.3-12
New Features
Vignette with example for tetramethylrhodamine (TAMRA)
