RMC-BestFit Version 2.0 Beta-2 introduces incremental improvements aimed at enhancing performance, flexibility, and ease of use. This update includes new features, Bayesian analysis enhancements, and minor bug fixes.

Highlights

  • Bug Fixes

    • Several minor bugs resolved to improve software stability and user experience.
  • New Features

    • HEC-DSS Importer: Import time series data directly from HEC-DSS files to streamline flood frequency analysis workflows.
    • Point Process Analysis: Fit a Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution using peaks-over-threshold (POT) data.
    • Rating Curve Analysis: Fit multi-segment stage-discharge rating curves to support more detailed hydraulic modeling.
  • Bayesian Analysis Enhancements

    • Posterior Point Estimator: Users can now select either the posterior mean or posterior mode as a point estimate for Bayesian analyses.
    • DIC Output and Model Averaging: All Bayesian models now report the Deviance Information Criterion (DIC). For univariate analyses, model averaging can be performed using DIC-based weights.
  • Improved Defaults

    • Simulation Settings: Default simulation parameters have been refined to promote better convergence across a broad range of analyses.
    • Flat Priors for Nonstationary Models: Default flat priors have been improved to work reliably across a wide range of distributions and datasets.
