RFSurrogates (development version)


Moved to new repository: AGSeifert/RFSurrogates

Fixed mean.index() bug which caused the return value to be of incorrect length in some cases (#4).


This is the legacy changelog of SurrogateMinimalDepth, previously located at Version_info.txt, adapted to Tidyverse Style for news.
Future releases should begin following Semantic Versioning, and changes should be easier to track using Conventional Commits.


RFSurrogates 0.3.1 (RFSurrogates 0.3.1)

Renamed package SurrogateMinimalDepth to RFSurrogates

Renamed parameter ntree to num.trees throughout the package.


RFSurrogates 0.3.0 (SurrogateMinimalDepth 0.3.0)

Round Mean Adjusted Agreement to 2 digits.

meanAdjAgree(): Sped up.
Changed that relations to variables not used as primary split are set as NA (before it was 0).

var.relations.corr() renamed to var.relations.mfi() (as named in the paper).
Bugfix for MFI and MIR.
Permutation approach to determine p-values was optimized for the selection of important and related variables.
Default approach for p-value calculation was set to "permutation".


RFSurrogates 0.2.1 (SurrogateMinimalDepth 0.2.1)

Included possibility to analyze categorial variables.


RFSurrogates 0.2.0 (SurrogateMinimalDepth 0.2.0)

New var.select.mir() to select important variables based on Mutual Impurity Reduction.
New var.relations.corr() to calculated unbiased relations.
Added multicore calculation of variable relations.

var.relations(): Included possibility to only calculate relations and not select variables.
Included the possibility to set case weights.


RFSurrogates 0.1.10 (SurrogateMinimalDepth 0.1.10)

Fixed bug not including first and last surrogate.
Added random selection of surrogates when adjusted agreement are the same.
Fixed bug in var.relation() example.
New build.clusters() to obtain variable groups.


RFSurrogates 0.1.9 (SurrogateMinimalDepth 0.1.9)


var.select.smd(): Some specifics to set s were adapted.

var.select.smd(), var.select.md(): Added save.memory parameter (to build the forst with ranger).


RFSurrogates 0.1.8 (SurrogateMinimalDepth 0.1.8)


var.select.md() now executes var.select.smd() with s = 0 instead of using a separate function.
New reduce.surrogates() function added.

var.select.smd(): Added parameters create.forest and forest to use existing forests (e.g. created by reduce.surrogates()).
Renamed parameter trees to forest containing trees and variable names.
The C-code is updated to enable multicore analysis.


RFSurrogates 0.1.7 (SurrogateMinimalDepth 0.1.7)


var.select.smd(), var.select.md(): Added parameter. save.ranger to save ranger object.


RFSurrogates 0.1.6 (SurrogateMinimalDepth 0.1.6)


var.select.smd(): Adapted threshold for low depth trees.


RFSurrogates 0.1.5 (SurrogateMinimalDepth 0.1.5)


var.select.smd(): Added s as a parameter.

var.select.smd(), var.select.md(): Implemented survival function.


RFSurrogates 0.1.4 (SurrogateMinimalDepth 0.1.4)

All errors and comments from coauthors implemented: first version uploaded on github.
