package not available.
 
CAISEr 1.0.16
- Maintenance update:
- minor fix in se_boot()to remove CRAN warning.
 
CAISEr 1.0.15

- Updated DESCRIPTION with links to published work.
 
CAISEr 1.0.14
- CAISEr plotting now returns a list of ggplot objects and relevant
dataframes, and plots a nested plot of relevant information.
- fixed bug when running experiment with two algorithms (due to the
default drop = TRUEwhen subsetting rows inse_param()/se_boot()).
CAISEr 1.0.6
- Added plot function to class CAISEr
CAISEr 1.0.5
- Major update: package can now deal with comparisons of multiple
(>2) algorithms. This version is not backward
compatible with versions 0.xx. To use the previous versions (e.g., to
replicate the results from the paper “Sample Size Estimation for Power
and Accuracy in the Experimental Comparison of Algorithms”, Journal of
Heuristics 2019), install the previous version from
https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/CAISEr_0.3.3.tar.gz.
- Replaced function calc_nreps2()bycalc_nreps()to calculate the number of repetitions in the
case of multiple (>2) algorithms.
- function calc_se()now performs point estimate and
standard error calculations for all pairs of interest in the case of
multiple algorithms.
- function calc_instances()now returns the number of
required instances to maintain the desired power for the family of
experiments, based on Holm’s step-down correction. It also returns the
sequence of alpha values and the corresponding power to detect the
effect sized, for each comparison using Holm’s
method.
- Removed class CAISER_powercurveand all associated
methods (print, summary, plot) as these were (very) rarely used.
- Added class nrepswith new summary/plotting
functions.
- Updated printandsummarymethods.
- The package now supports saving and (re)loading partially executed
experiments.
CAISEr 0.3.3
- fixed problem with printing version in the vignette.
CAISEr 0.3.2
- fixed rare bug in calc_se()that resulted inNaNif two vectors with the same sample mean and same
sample variance were passed as arguments.
CAISEr 0.3.1
- Added function to consolidate partial results saved to file
(consolidate.partial.results())
- Minor improvements to saving partial results to file: users can now
select arbitrary directory for saving
CAISEr 0.3
- run_experiment()can now be run in parallel using
multiple cores.
- run_experiment()and- calc_nreps2()can now
save results to files.
CAISEr 0.2.4
- run_experiment()now forces the use of all available
instances if- power >= 1.
CAISEr 0.2.3
- Improved plot and summary functions for
CAISErPowercurveobjects.
- Added options to calc_power_curve()to determine the
range of effect sizes to consider.
CAISEr 0.2.2
- Added new example and use case to calc_nreps2()
CAISEr 0.2.1
- Minor fixes, particularly in printing function.
