A new version of e1071 has been released to CRAN which should be much easier to install on a lot of platforms because reading/writing PNM images has been moved to the pixmap package, hence there are no longer dependencies on external libraries and no configure mechanism. For the authors, Fritz Leisch ********************************************************** Changes in Version 1.2-0: o Added functions for bagged clustering, see help(bclust). o read.pnm() and write.pgm() have been removed from e1071, much improved versions can now be found in the new package pixmap. o Lots of documentation updates and bugfixes. o Support Vector Machine interface now upgraded to libsvm V. 2.31 featuring: - Multi-Class Classification - weighting of classes for C-classification (for asymmetric sample sizes) - nu-regression - Formula Interface - k-fold cross-validation In addition, an introductory article is provided in directory `docs/' (svmdoc.pdf). o classAgreement now features an option to match factor levels o updated API design for the fuzzy clustering functions (cmeans, cshell, scaclust). Documentation updates and function name changes (cmeanscl -> cmeans, validity.measures -> fclustIndex) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Friedrich Leisch Institut f?r Statistik Tel: (+43 1) 58801 10715 Technische Universit?t Wien Fax: (+43 1) 58801 10798 Wiedner Hauptstra?e 8-10/1071 Friedrich.Leisch at ci.tuwien.ac.at A-1040 Wien, Austria http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~leisch ------------------------------------------------------------------- -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-announce mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
