cdcatR 1.0.7 (2026-02-11)
- Fix minor bug in cdcatR:::cdcat.getdata()
- Update NEWS.Rd to comply with format requirement
cdcatR 1.0.6 (2022-05-25)
- Update to satisfy CRAN requirements
- Minor edits in the documentation of cdcat() and fixed typos for cdcat.summary() output for itemSelect = 'GNPS' or 'NPS' applications
cdcatR 1.0.5 (2022-04-06)
- The general non-parametric method for CD-CAT was included in cdcat()
- The cdcat.summary() function can now be also used without providing the argument att()
cdcatR 1.0.4 (2022-03-31)
- Some examples removed from gen.data()
- Fixed attribute labels in att.plot()
- Fixed a bug for LR.2step() where the function stopped if the computations resulted in NA
cdcatR 1.0.3 (2021-07-06)
- cdcat.summary: Minor modifications in the plots
- gen.itembank: Two additional arguments incorporated (gs.parm and catprob.parm) to allow for more targeted manipulation of the quality of the item bank
- cdcat: New arguments included for specification of the starting rule (startK and startRule), item exposure control (itemExposurecontrol, b, and maxr), and the inclusion of additional constraints (itemConstraint and constraint.args$ATTRIBUTEc)
- helper: Functions updated to accommodate the above-mentioned modifications
cdcatR 1.0.2 (2020-09-09)
- Fixed a bug for cdcat() when ItemSelect = "JSD"
- Fixed a bug for cdcat() when ItemSelect = "PWKL"
- Minor modification of cdcat() for gathering the information (Q-matrix)
cdcatR 1.0.1 (2020-07-02)
- Addressed the noLD unit test issues in the previous version
cdcatR 1.0.0 (2020-06-13)
DESCRIPTION:
- version and date updated
- P. Nájera listed as a co-author
- package dependencies updated
att.plot:
- CDM package accepted
- nonparametric CD-CAT accepted
- k argument included for selecting the attributes to be plotted. If k = NULL (by default), all attributes are plotted
- color has been added to the plot: red = non-mastered, green = mastered, blue = unclassified
cdcat:
- CDM package accepted
- several item selection rules included: GDI, JSD, MPWKL, PWKL, NPS, random (argument itemSelect)
- nonparametric CD-CAT included (itemSelect = "NPS")
- different arguments available: gate, pseudo.prob, w.type, and seed (argument NPS.args). pseudo.prob and w.type are experimental
- some arguments needed to be modified / included (e.g., Q is required with nonparametric CD-CAT)
- parallelization included (argument n.cores)
- some warning / error messages included
- information regarding multiple modes (for ML and MAP) included in the output
- i.print is a deprecated argument. When parallelizing, no information is printed
- updated information and references
- new example for the nonparametric CD-CAT included
- examples updated
cdcat.summary:
- major update
- item exposure information included
- optional label argument included (in case two objects share model)
- CDM package accepted
- nonparametric CD-CAT accepted
- plots improved (e.g., without secondary grids)
- violin plot for variable length CD-CAT improved (e.g., geom_dotplot instead of geom_jitter, x axis labels removed)
cdcat.comp:
- function removed. cdcat.comp is now included in cdcat.summary
gen.data:
- new function to simulate data
gen.itembank:
- major update
- data generation under different CDMs using the GDINA::simGDINA function
- additional specifications when creating a Q-matrix included
LR2step:
- example updated
- CDM package accepted
- error when K^*j = 4 fixed
- p.adjust.methods method and alpha.level arguments included
- new output included LR2.adjp and models.adjp
sim180combination, 180DINA, sim180GDINA
helper:
- all functions required for cdcat and gen.itembank functions included
