Changes in version 2.1.0 (2026-03-15) - Correction to the storage in PWD_outlier function, leading to slightly different z-scores in the output. - Output to PWD_outlier function was adjusted to include a dataframe element with more easily-readable output. - The option to print (via the printem argument) during the function application was thus removed for simplicity. - Updated the primary reference to the now-known publication date. Changes in version 2.0.0 (2026-01-09) - Sizable update, refining functions to operate more efficiently. - PWD_RL is no longer called by other functions, but it is retained for individual application. - PWD_get_gh is the major update, in which the original search algorithm is replaced by an improved algorithm, which we refer to as the unified approach, focusing on the ratio rho=sigma/kappa. This results in a many-fold decrease in computing speed. - The interconnected functions now also incorporate an optional starting point for all the parameters in the search algorithm: PWD_get_gh, PWD_inference, and PWD_outlier include options to initialize any of rho, alpha, beta, or the vector mu. - PWD_known is also updated to reflect the full likelihood, leading to an improved algorithm using the optim function. - Various housekeeping and grammatical edits were also integrated: - Adjusted various functions to better handle missing values. - Expand the reference to our paper by adding its title wherever we just have the DOI. - Under PWD_get_gh Details, removed "reduces the number of optimized parameters..." - Under PWD_inference Description, deleted "Currently". - Under WD_Linnet Details, added "since the underlying precision profile models are not the same." - Removed double-spacing in message-outputs (artifact of retaining "\n" from cat, no longer needed) - Inside PWD_outlier function, removed extraneous text output and double-spacing. - Under PWD_outlier values, edited the description of scalr. - Clarification in details for PW_outlier. - Clarification in the description of PWD_resi. - Streamlined the package Description. - Standardized the argument definitions using the parameter notation (versus words) and ended each with a period (as is standard) instead of a comma. - Revised the Details section for PWD_get_gh to reflect the fewer number of parameters. - Updated the Reference for the primary reference paper with the new doi and accepted status. - The main change was updates to the PWD_resi function: removed Pvals, and edited documentation to match, reflecting removal from the submitted paper. - Minor documentation edits, standardizing the annotation. - Adjusted output name to be L instead of like for -2 log Likelihood. - Added details for default initial values of parameters. - Set printem defaults to reduce automatic output for PWD_outlier. - Minor adjustments to documentation language. - Added Argument notes and Details for PWD_get_gh documentation, defining rho as the ratio sigma/kappa. - Fixed output formatting for PWD_outlier. Changes in version 1.0.6 (2025-09-09) - revised individual function documentation to reference arXiv document by arXiv DOI in format doi:10.48550/arXiv.YYMM.NNNNN. - adjusted one other doi reference correspondingly. Changes in version 1.0.5 - updated algorithm in function PWD_RL to better handle rare non-convergence. Changes in version 1.0.4 - revised primary reference in DESCRIPTION file to include author names and to have consistent format. - For runnable (but >10s running) code in examples, replaced \dontrun with \donttest. This was applied to functions: PWD_inference, PWD_outlier. - Removed the default console output by: (1) setting the printem to default to FALSE; and (2) replacing any print()/cat() with message(). This was applied for: PWD_get_gh, PWD_inference, PWD_known, PWD_outlier, PWD_resi, and WD_Linnet. Relevant items are elements on the list-value of the function. - Replaced print() with message() and stop() for possible error in WD_General. Changes in version 1.0.3 - placed examples directly into function-building files; - used \dontrun{} to keep runtime under 10s. Changes in version 1.0.2 - Corrected Github address. Changes in version 1.0.1 - Updated arXiv URL and Description to more closely meet auto-check. Changes in version 1.0.0 - Initial CRAN submission. Changes in version 0.99.0 - Minor updates to documentation. Changes in version 0.0.0.9012 - Most recently updated simplified examples
