Release 0.8.3

Changes:

• The profoc function was extended:

  • regret can now be passed as an array as before, or as a list, e.g. list(regret = regret_array, share = 0.2) if the provided regret should be mixed with the regret calculated by online.
  • loss can also be provided as a list, see above.

• The batch function can now minimize an alternative objection function using the quantile weighted CRPS

  • This weighting scheme can be activated by setting qw_crps=TRUE
  • It defaults to FALSE due to better performance

Internal changes

• Changes to the splines2 package required some changes on our side. This affected the creation of the b-spline basis. See #3
