Changes in version 2.0.0: o Broad support for DataFrame and MultiAssayExperiment data sets by feature selection and classification functions. o The majority of processing is now done in the DataFrame method for functions that implement methods for multiple kinds of inputs. o Elastic net GLM classifier and multinomial logistic regression classifier wrapper functions. o Plotting functions have a new default style using a white background with black axes. o Vignette simplified and uses a new mass cytometry data set with clearer differences between classes to demonstrate classification and its performance evaluation. Changes in version 1.12.0: o Alterations to make plots compatible with ggplot versions 2.2 and greater. o calcPerformance can calculate some performance metrics for classification tasks based on data sets with more than two classes. o Sample-wise metrics, like sample-specific error rate and sample-specific accuracy are calculated by calcPerformance and added to the ClassifyResult object, rather than by samplesMetricMap and being inaccessible to the end-user. Changes in version 1.10.0: o errorMap replaced by samplesMetricMap. The plot can now show either error rate or accuracy. Changes in version 1.8.0: o Ordinary k-fold cross-validation option added. o Absolute difference of group medians feature selection function added. Changes in version 1.4.0: o Weighted voting mode that uses the distance from an observation to the nearest crossover point of the class densities added. o Bartlett Test selection function included. o New class SelectResult. rankPlot and selectionPlot can additionally work with lists of SelectResult objects. All feature selection functions now return a SelectResult object or a list of them. o priorSelection is a new selection function for using features selected in a prior cross validation for a new data set classification. o New weighted voting mode, where the weight is the distance of the x value from the nearest crossover point of the two densities. Useful for predictions with skewed features. Changes in version 1.2.0: o More classification flexibility, now with parameter tuning integrated into the process. o New performance evaluation functions, such as a ROC curve and a performance plot. o Some existing predictor functions are able to return class scores, not just class labels. Changes in version 1.0.0: o First release of the package, which allows parallelised and customised classification, with many convenient performance evaluation functions.
