{EGAnet} 2.4.0

Changes in version 2.4.0

• ADD: new function (plot_clusters) to plot clusters of individual dynEGA results

• ADD: TEFI optimization for dynEGA functions

• ADD: dynamic.network.compare to compare dynamic networks (allows for paired and non-paired tests)

• ADD: network.fit for traditional fit statistics (only accurate for continuous data)

• ADD: known.graph to refit without regularization or allow a graph to be estimated with weights when it is known

• CHANGE: network.nonconvex changed to network.regularization for more generic implementations

• UPDATE: zero variance time series handling in dynEGA functions

• UPDATE: better mechanism for simEGM

• UPDATE: better optimizations for EGM.optimizations

• REMOVE: EGM has been removed (for now) as its under revision

• REMOVE: network.nonconvex has been removed (for now) as its under revision

• INTERNAL: regularization penalties and derivatives are added but not used (yet)

Changes in version 2.3.1

• FIX: documentation for itemDiagnostics

• FIX: $keep output from itemDiagnostics rather than $suggested

• UPDATE: added argument, ordered, to either output net.loads in the initial variable order or descending order for each community

• UPDATE: beta-min condition is used to supply a model-implied network for simEGM

• UPDATE: missing data handling in glla and subsequently dynEGA functions

Changes in version 2.3.0

• ADD: itemDiagnostics for automated detection of potential instability issues such as local dependnece, minor dimensions, multidimensionality, and low loadings

• FIX: default itemStability plot switched back to empirical dimensions only

• UPDATE: simEGM has a new (faster) data generating mechanism

• UPDATE: EGM optimizations for log-likelihood, AIC, and BIC were added (including proper gradients)
