and errors of class moduleFailure, with the fields
operation, phase, unit,
path, count and total where they
apply. Their texts no longer carry the [INFO],
[OK] or [DBG] prefixes, colors, or the
=== and > section markers.aR.quiet and aR.verbose are
gone. A detail message is signaled whenever its step runs, instead of
only under options(aR.verbose = TRUE);
suppressMessages() silences the messages, and
verbose = FALSE still turns off the detail messages of
auditQuantiles() and auditOverfit().auditOverfit() with verbose = TRUE returns
its empty table after an audit that produced nothing. Under
options(aR.verbose = TRUE) it stopped on the absent

error line to the console renderer of the installed command, on standard
error. --quiet hides notes, progress and detail;
--verbose shows detail and the condition fields.--spec without the .json or .rds
extension, an invalid --output, --seed or
--root and a data-returning operation without
--output exit 2 instead of 1. An error without the class
moduleFailure or moduleUsage, such as a plain
stop() of the library, names the R version and the package
found, as the load failure did.ssel --help lists the streams, the console flags and
the exit statuses.describeModule(resources) diagnoses an installation of
the ssel command without repairs and returns its report:
schema, package, version,
summary and the required checks library,
exports, packages, tools and
receipt. ssel doctor prints this report as
JSON.crayon is removed from Imports.ssel --version prints two lines, the package with its
version and the build commit, and describes ssel doctor.
The README lists describeModule() in its public API
table.oofEnsemble() also
reports how many response-dataset cells it reconstructed when the
ensemble rules drop some, and both helpers report an audit that produced
nothing at all, distinguishing a pattern that matched no filename from
matches that were all skipped. Products, return values and exit status
are unchanged, and a complete audit warns about nothing.auditQuantiles() names what it observed when
reconstruction yields no row: the model directory, how many
.Rds files it holds and the response pattern in force. It
previously reported that no models were found even when they were
present and the pattern had excluded them.chainPipeline() raises
while stitching the per-response best iterations begin with
chainPipeline: instead of chainPipeline R5:,
and the heading message of that stage reads
Per-response best iteration (stitched final pass) instead
of R5 - per-response best iter (stitched final pass).pak is removed from Suggests.auditOverfit() documented that an audit surviving no
model creates a zero-byte overfit.csv. That happens only
when no file was there before. data.table::fwrite() refuses
a column-less table, so an existing overfit.csv survives
untouched and still holds the previous run’s verdict; the manual now
states both cases and points at the new warnings as the signal that the
file is not from this run.
The repository moved to the kanameishi organization. The
URL field of DESCRIPTION, the
ssel-package help topic, the citation entry and the README
name its documentation site, https://kanameishi.github.io/ssel/.
The command-line interface article states that
ssel --version prints ssel <version>,
the version of the package actually loaded. The citation block of the
README no longer carries a version number; citation("ssel")
reports the installed version.
ssel command shares the package’s version:
ssel --version prints ssel <version>,
and the command requires the installed API facts instead of a minimum
package version of its own.ssel --version and the failure context of the command
no longer name the directory of the installed package or R’s library
paths.--root DIR selects an existing project directory.
Relative paths resolve from it: the specification, its CSV/RDS
references, operation arguments and --output. Without
--root they resolve from the working directory, as
before.install/install.sh and install/install.ps1
install the package and the command together; the
--component and -Component options are
removed. The generated launchers resolve R when they run instead of
reusing the R recorded at installation.--output saves the function’s return after the
operation runs without redirecting its working directories.buildDataset, trainModel,
trainRegressionModel, predictModel, the three
pipelines, oofEnsemble, the two audits,
aggregateResponses, postProcess) sets
options(datatable.keepLeadingZeros = TRUE) for the duration
of the call, restored on exit, and buildDataset no longer
numeric-coerces the key or declared identifier columns. A sample key
such as 031 was previously delivered as 31 in
Yo.csv and the id sidecars; it is now delivered as
031. Predictions, metrics and model files are unchanged.
Projects whose keys are numeric without leading zeros see identical CSV
text (the in-memory column type becomes character). The registered
consumer projects were measured unaffected: their keys are alphanumeric
and their inputs contain no leading-zero cells, so fread
returns identical data with and without the option.buildDataset refuses a missing or CSV-less
.path.input (previously a silent no-op) and refuses dataset
or response names containing _, which cannot round-trip
through the <response>_<dataset>_TRAIN.csv
split files (previously a downstream data file not found).
trainModel and predictModel refuse a missing
or split-less .path.train (previously
'x' must be atomic) and a .responses filter
that matches no split (previously
invalid subscript type 'list'). Valid projects are
unaffected.inst/api/operations.json): the operation register,
compatibility aliases, vector/table argument kinds and the file-oriented
operation set. CLI 0.3.0 reads these facts from the installed package
instead of carrying its own literals and now requires library 0.4.5 or
later; without the file, ssel --help prints the minimum
version instead of failing on a missing object. A drift test keeps the
facts identical to the exported surface. No modeling behavior
changes.boundsMin/boundsMax and
.min/.max of the eleven modeling, audit and
delivery entry points are validated on entry: each must be a single
non-NA numeric value (Inf and
-Inf remain allowed and are the defaults). A bound of the
wrong type, such as a string in a JSON specification, now fails with an
error naming the argument instead of silently clamping predictions.
Valid bounds produce identical products.--output, producing result.json (shape
and types; NA as null; NaN, Inf
and -Inf as their exact texts) plus one CSV per table,
while .rds keeps the exact native value.
--seed N seeds the R process before the operation, making
independent invocations reproducible. OPERATION --help
renders the installed R documentation. The JSON texts
"Inf", "-Inf" and "NaN" decode to
numeric only where the argument default is numeric. Warnings are
reported as they happen.modelPipeline(), chainPipeline() and
semiSupervisedPipeline() now refuse to wipe a declared
output directory that coincides with, contains or is inside the datasets
directory, that contains the working directory, or that coincides with
another declared path; the error names both paths and nothing is
deleted. Valid configurations produce identical products._ and . first, and
trainRegressionModel() fits under the C collation so that
the cross-validation folds caret groups by response label
are the same on every platform; runs on macOS with the default collation
are unchanged, runs under LC_ALL=C now match them.semiSupervisedPipeline() builds each final TEST split
from the fitted TRAIN schema, so multiple target responses no longer
cause an extra-key failure. Final summaries and exports include the
original prediction pool, including promoted rows. Fitted models,
promotion rules, history and OOF diagnostics retain their existing
behavior.model, chain and post
aliases retained. JSON and native RDS specifications, explicit CSV
schemas and RDS results support standalone helpers as well as complete
pipelines. The CLI manual describes the library boundary and executable
examples.removeOutliersIQR() applies the interquartile envelopes
of the inspected predictors together instead of one at a time. The loop
rebuilt the surviving set from the original data on each pass, so only
the last inspected column ever narrowed it: with an outlier seeded in
each of three columns the function removed one row of sixty. It now
removes all three. A dataset whose ranked predictors are all non-numeric
returns unchanged rather than failing in a C stack overflow, and a
missing value in an inspected column no longer decides its row, because
a value that cannot be compared to an envelope is not evidence of an
outlier.Stage 3 prediction skips a cell whose TEST split
holds no rows, with a warning, instead of aborting the run.
buildDataset() can drop every test row of a cell when a
predictor lacks coverage, which is routine in chain datasets; the run
previously stopped on a type mismatch. The Stage 2 metrics and
out-of-fold predictions of the skipped cell stand, and the cell
contributes no delivery rows.
The chain stitch excludes a declared response that produced no iteration-0 metric row, with a warning, instead of aborting. Such a response has no fitted cell in any iteration — every cell was skipped for insufficient support — so it has no delivery rows to preserve.
The resampling argument and its temporal
timeslice mode are removed from
modelPipeline(), chainPipeline(),
trainModel() and trainRegressionModel(),
together with the internal .resolveResampling() helper, its
short-series guard, its test file, and its vignette. The argument never
reached a released version: it was added after 0.3.1 was published, and
no consumer passed it. Fitting returns to the single k-fold generator it
used before, and every artifact of a default run is unchanged.
Time-respecting evaluation belongs to a separate forecast API whose unit is a series rather than a row, and which needs a horizon axis that none of the present artifacts carry. Threading a fold generator through the supervised path could not provide it.
The help topics of trainModel() and
trainRegressionModel() describe the layers of the training
API as they behave: which stage owns each directory, what each mode
reads and writes, and where the ensemble weights come from. The
ensemble-theory article gains the matching derivation.
removeOutliersIQR() states what it does. The topic
previously described envelopes that the function did not apply, and did
not mention that the response column must be named y or
that the caret formula interface rejects missing values before any
envelope is computed.
trainRegressionModel() now restores the exact named
R2 and RMSE score lists for each
response–dataset cell before unseen-row prediction. Ensemble weights and
method pruning are therefore cell-local and no longer inherit state from
the last OOF cell visited. Weight formulas, equal-weight fallbacks,
output schemas, and selectors are unchanged.auditOverfit() now discovers mixed-case caret method
names consistently with oofEnsemble().dev/ and
TITO/ material. DESCRIPTION and README metadata now match
the implemented public API and include verified method references.semiSupervisedPipeline().
Package-defined range-ratio pseudo-label promotion with an out-of-fold
squared-correlation gauge over original labelled rows, a key budget,
absolute-tolerance reversion with an accepted-state refit, and final
serial cell-file re-emission. With .path.iter pointing to a
chainPipeline() iteration directory, the baseline can use
one selected augmented dataset snapshot.trainRegressionModel() now promotes integer predictor
columns to numeric after reading train/test split CSVs in the training,
metrics, and prediction paths. This keeps caret model frames type-stable
when data.table::fread() infers integer in one split and
double in another, avoiding prediction-time class mismatch failures
without changing the numeric values.inst/dev/sot/ and is not part of the public API in this
release. The redesign items are tracked as planned work before any
exported semi-supervised entry point is added.buildDataset(), modelPipeline(), and
chainPipeline() now accept an optional exact
features vector for base predictors. When supplied,
train/test splits use only those predictor columns plus chain-generated
prior-iteration columns governed by ITER_SUFFIX, and fail
clearly if a requested predictor is missing or if a response/identifier
column is listed as a predictor. The default
features = NULL preserves legacy predictor inference.chainPipeline(resume = TRUE) now fails before
attempting to read metrics when the resume state is incomplete. If
.path.iter/convergence.csv and
.path.iter/Y.csv exist but
.path.summary/metrics.csv is missing, the error names the
missing artifact and tells the caller to start a fresh run with
resume = FALSE or restore the summary metrics
artifact.trainRegressionModel() now skips response/dataset cells
whose training response has no variance before calling
caret::train(). The warning names the affected cell and
reports the row count, unique response count, minimum, and maximum,
avoiding low-level errors such as
invalid number of intervals for unsupported
response/dataset intersections.chainPipeline() now snapshots and stitches all summary
artifacts consistently in the final per-response best-iteration pass.
metrics.csv, response_long.csv,
residuals_oof.csv, prediction_quantiles.csv,
