are allowed.
Add missing rclass function to derive class predictions
from conditional class
probabilities to Binomial() family.
Plot correct x-axis in plot(cvrisk(...))
(closes #102).
Removed deprecated argument LINPACK from all calls to solve.
Fixes #109.
Fixed minor bug in plot.cvrisk.
Fixes #96.
Really check for leave-one-out crossvalidation if CoxPH was
used.

documentation but was not used in function.
Fixes #105.
Fixed a minor issue with special contrast "contr.dummy".
Fixed typo in vignette.
Dropped \itemize in ‘ins/NEWS.Rd’.
Fixes #94.

see Weinhold et al. (2016).
Closes #86.
Removed corrected cross-validation for Cox models (Verweij and van Houwelingen, 1993) as it was not working. Closes #85.
Use partykit::ctree instead of party::ctree in
btree and blackboost. This is slower but more flexible.
Allow multivariate negative gradients. Note that all elements are updated simultaneously, which in most cases is NOT what you want (but in rare cases it is the right thing to do).
Allow the specification of either mstop or grid in stabsel.
Allow leave-one-out crossvalidation (via type = "kfold").
Throw error when data is not compatibel (instead of silently recycling the vector). Fixes #79.

Christoffersen.
Updated kernel boosting reference. Closes #84.

Fix handling of missing values in mboost and gamboost
when weights are specified. Fixes #80.
Models with zero steps (i.e., models containing only the offset) can now be fitted. Furthermore, cross-validation can now also select a model without base-learners. Fixes #64, #66, and #69.
Binomial now uses link functions by making use of make.link.
Furthermore, an alternative implementation of Binomial models
along the lines of the glm implementation can be used via
Binomial(type = "glm"). Additionally, it works not only with a
two-level factor but also with a two-column matrix containing the number
of successes and number of failures.
Fixes #34,
#63 and
#65.
Added new base-learner bkernel for kernel boosting as described in

Fixes #68.
Make sure that newdata is discarded in fitted.
Fixes #76.
New Cindex family to optimize survival models w.r.t. the concordance index.
Fixes #53.
Added function varimp to extract variable importance.
A dedicated plot function exists (plot(varimp())). Code was provided

i.e., maps (thanks to Mikko Korpela).
See pull request #39.
Provide sensible defaults for xlab and ylab and allow
user-specified axis labels for bi- and multivariate plots.

Added documentation for plot.mboost function and moved
documentation of plot.glmboost to the same help page.
Resolves issue #14.
bbs and bmono no longer allow data outside of
the boundary.knots during model fitting.
Predictions for bbs and bmono now use linear
extrapolation (user request inspired by
mgcv::Predict.matrix.pspline.smooth).
Better handling of errors in (single) folds of cvrisk:
results of folds without errors are used and a warning is
issued.
Parallel computing via mclapply: Set
mc.preschedule = FALSE per default.
Added new option options(mboost_check_df2lambda =
TRUE), which controls if a stability check in df2lambda
is performed. If set to FALSE this might speed up the
computation of df2lambda especially with large design
matrices.
Prediction now also possible with newdata = list().
Resolves issue
#15.
PropOdds(): Updated manual for proportional odds model.
Multinomial(): Updated manual for multinomial logit
model. Predictions for new data are now
possible (resolves issue
#13, thanks to
Sarah Brockhaus).
‘inst/CITATION’: Added subheadings and tutorial paper.
Stopped computing the singular vectors in df2lambda
as the singular values are sufficient and as
“computing the singular vectors is the slow part for large
matrices” (proposed by Fabian Scheipl).
Fixed bug in PropOdds() which occurred if
offset was specified: nuisance parameters delta
and sigma were not properly initialized (spotted by Madlene Nussbaum).
Bug in plot.mboost() fixed which occurred if a factor
with equal effect estimates for different categories was plotted.

symmetric if it is Matrix-object (spotted by Souhaib Ben
Taieb).

assumed to be of full rank.

Adhere to CRAN policies regarding import of base packages (closes #9).
Export df2lambda, hyper_bbs and bl_lin
to make package FDboost happy. Note: These functions
usually should not be called directly by users.

required)
load AML dataset (‘AML_Bullinger.rda’) from package TH.data
Updated references (for stability selection, confidence intervals and constrained regression)
fixed ‘inst/CITATION’
Refer to news(package = "mboost") instead of to the
‘NEWS’ file.
Cross-validation was potentially wrong for CoxPH()
models. Users can now choose if they want the naive
cross-validation or the improved version by Verweij and van
Houwelingen (1993); (spotted by Holger Reulen <hreulen _ at _
uni-goettingen.de>)
Examples in \dontrun are now executable and all
dependencies are properly stated in ‘DESCRIPTION’
Added confint function to compute (bootstrap)
confidence intervals together with plot and print methods
stabsel() now depends on the new package stabs
where the back end and methods such as plot and
print are implemented

Changed plain text ‘NEWS’ to ‘inst/NEWS.Rd’

Partial LH as constants are canceled out; Use fixed offset
instead;
speed up checking of manual by changing some computations (e.g. reduce
mstop) or exclude code from checking via \dontrun{}
removed dependency on ipred (replaced with TH.data)
small improvements in manual
bbs(..., center = "spectralDecomp") computes the spectral
decomposition of the penalty matrix and the penalized part of the
design matrix is defined by this decomposition.
Experiments show that bols(x) + bbs(x, center = "spectralDecomp")
is a little better in recovering the true underlying functions than
the default bols(x) + bbs(x, center = TRUE) or, equivalently,
bols(x) + bbs(x, center = "differenceMatrix").
For bbs(x, y, center = TRUE) or bmrf(x, center = TRUE),
the spectral decomposition is (and was) always used.
fixed bug in stabsel: '...' was not passed to
cvrisk and thus one could not specify options for mclapply
fixed bug in brandom: now really use
contrasts.arg = "contr.dummy" per default.
removed tests/ folder and .Rout.save files for
vignettes from the CRAN release
small improvements in manual

margin) than the specified bound.

q variables.
improved output of errors and warnings in stabsel.

degrees of freedom are now computed from smoothing parameter
as described in B. Hofner, T. Hothorn, T. Kneib, M. Schmid (2011).

[experimental] bmono() now implements constraints at the boundaries of

bols(x, intercept = FALSE) only reasonable if x is centered. A warning is now issued if x is not centered.
changed default for degrees of freedom in bspatial() to df = 6
added checks in bbs (and brandom) to ensure that the specified degrees of freedom are greater than the range of the (unpenalized) null space

glmboost(..., center = TRUE) now also centers columns of the design matrix corresponding to contrasts of factors when an intercept term is present leading to faster risk minimization in these cases.
coef.glmboost: New argument off2int = TRUE adds the
offset to the intercept. In addition, the intercept
term is now adjusted for centered covariates.
