Bagged (“leafy”) partDSA no longer errors when
leafy.random.num.variables.per.split is greater than or
equal to the number of predictors; the random variable subset (“mtry”)
is now capped at the number of predictors.
trim() on a partDSA object now actually
trims the inherited fields (IkPn,
coefficients, IkPn.risks,
var.importance). Previously the result of the inherited
dsa trim method was discarded, so only the partDSA-specific
fields were shortened.
loss.function = "DR" for censored outcomes now fails
with a clear message (it was never implemented and previously raised a
cryptic “object ‘get.overall.risk’ not found”).
Survival fits no longer print a spurious
n == length(y)%/%2 is not TRUE error to the console. The
internal per-partition outcome list relied on
length(<Surv>) returning 2n; modern
versions of the survival package return n,
which silently disabled $datalist (and therefore
dumpDSA() / showDSA() for survival outcomes).
It now uses NROW().
The Integrated Brier Score reported for multiple time points is
now a proper, normalized score. Previously the per-time-point Brier
scores were summed (default
IBS.wt = rep(1, length(brier.vec))), inflating the reported
value by roughly the number of time points and pushing it outside the
valid [0, 0.25] range in both mean.cv.risk.DSA
and test.set.risk.DSA. The default now uses trapezoidal
weights that sum to 1 and normalize by the time range. Single-time-point
behavior is unchanged; explicitly supplied IBS.wt is
respected (and aligned to the now-sorted
brier.vec).
DESCRIPTION from the deprecated
Author:/Maintainer: fields to
Authors@R.inst/CITATION from the old-style
citEntry() / personList() to
bibentry() / person().split.fx() to
find.split.fx() so it is no longer mistaken for an
unregistered S3 method of the base split() generic.testthat test suite
(tests/testthat/).\Address/\URL so the JSS
link/to/webpage placeholder is no longer emitted into the
PDFs. Removed a redundant data(GBSG2) call in the survival
vignette.
