# NobBS v. 1.0.0
Updates to v. 0.1.0 (Initial Release) are major fixes to remove deprecated `tidyverse` functions, replacing `group_by_` with `group_by(!!sym())` and `vars_select` with standard `select`.

# NobBS v. 0.1.0 (Initial Release)
See `README.md` for a full tutorial on using the NobBS package.

Updates to the development version include:

* A function for stratified Bayesian nowcasting, `NobBS.strat`
* An argument to specify the `proportion_reported` and inflate the estimated cases by that factor, important in outbreaks with severe under-reporting or asymptomatic cases.
* Additional checks and warnings issued for impossible temporal combinations of moving window sizes, maximum delay D, and the length of the time series.
* Warning issued when a case onset week is skipped in the time series or is missing reports altogether.
* Plot examples

# NobBS v. 0.0.0.9000 (Development)

NobBS (Nowcasting by Bayesian Smoothing) is a new R package that produces smooth Bayesian nowcasts of incomplete, time-stamped reporting data implemented from [McGough et al. 2019](https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/663823v1.full).
