Changes in version 1.3.7 (2025-07-17) 1. Fix minor issue of Author in DECRIPTION file Changes in version 1.3.6 (2022-06-15) 1. Fix minor issue of item values at help files for OS "-linux-x86_64-debian-clang", "r-devel-linux-x86_64-debian-gcc" Changes in version 1.3.5 (2019-06-28) New functions added for knee point estimation - check_curve() checks a curve for its convexity type - uik() finds the UIK estimation for elbow or knee point of a curve - d2uik() performs UIK method on the approximation of second order derivatives The Unit Invariant Knee (UIK) estimator is described in article: - Demetris T. Christopoulos (2016). Introducing Unit Invariant Knee (UIK) As an Objective Choice for Elbow Point in Multivariate Data Analysis Techniques. Available at SSRN: http://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.3043076 Vignettes added for the package Install the inflection package and then read vignettes: - vignette('inflection', package ='inflection') an introductory vignette - vignette('inflectionDevelopingMethods', package ='inflection') reproduction of results for article: - Demetris T. Christopoulos (2014). Developing methods for identifying the inflection point of a convex/concave curve. arXiv:1206.5478v2 [math.NA]. https://arxiv.org/pdf/1206.5478v2 - vignette('inflectionMissionImpossible', package ='inflection') a vignette for ‘impossible’ missions Minor changes Remove the option to plot in two separate pdfs ‘ese_iterations.pdf’, ‘ede_iterations.pdf’ from findipiterplot() and open new plot windows instead of saving files. Changes in version 1.3 (2017-05-13) Use of parallel computing under request (doparallel=TRUE) for the functions: - ese() - bese() - findiplist() - findipiterplot() Repair of function findipiterplot() 1. Fix bugs in calling the function 2. Remove indirect methods CRESE, CREDE due to their limited functionality 3. Plot in two separate pdfs ‘ese_iterations.pdf’ and ‘ede_iterations.pdf’ 4. Check for the existence of sufficient number of results before creating confidence intervals Changes in version 1.2 (2016-06-10) 1. The function eixf(x, y, f, i) was removed as not essentially necessary 2. New functions with self declaring names were added: - ese(x,y,index) - bese(x,y,index) - ede(x,y,index) - edeci(x,y,index) - bede(x,y,index) All functions require length(x)>=4 in order to create numeric output 1. The function findipiterplot(x,y,index) was improved and became findipiterplot(x, y, index, plots = TRUE, crossrun = FALSE, ci = FALSE) 2. Changes in NAMESPACE 3. Reference to new paper: Demetris T.
