Changes in version 1.1.0 (2026-04-15) New and Altered Features - Added mixture priors and models "exnex_mix", "exnex_adj_mix", "stratified_mix". - Minor changes in code Changes in version 1.0.0 (2026-02-21) New and Altered Features - Added structured unit tests for core functionality - Integrated code coverage - Replaced validation logic with checkmate assertions and removed unused helper functions - Replaced dependency on R2jags to rjags - Added Github Actions workflows for automated R CMD check and CI validation - Minor changes in code Changes in version 0.9.6 Fixed Bugs - Fixed a bug in getEstimates(), which used to calculate variances instead of the standard deviations of response rates estimated with the methods pooled and stratified New & Altered Features - Added print methods for scenario_list, analysis_list, and decision_list objects - Added function getAverageNSubjects() - Switched from R2jags to rjags for performance increase - Performance increases in performAnalyses(), getEstimates(), and getGoDecisions() - getGoDecisions() saves the decisions rules used to derive the decisions - In continueRecruitment(), the argument method_name can be omitted if only one method has been used in performAnalyses() - Caution message in performAnalyses() if no parallel backend is detected disabled for methods stratified and pooled - Changed message from performAnalyses() - Disabled loading package messages when calling functions from other packages - Updated Imports in DESCRIPTION - Minor changes in code Changes in version 0.9.5 (2022-02-14) Fixed Bugs - Fixed a bug that occured in performAnalyses() using R-devel due to a recent change in stats::aggregate() New & Altered Features - Introduced nested parallelization for better usage of HPC resources - Introduced chunking of tasks for better performance in parallel environments - Updated vignette on HPC environment - Update documentation of performAnalyses() - Recommended doFuture and future over doParallel and parallel when no parallel backend is detected - Updated Suggests and SystemRequirements in DESCRIPTION - Added a WORDLIST - Minor changes in code Changes in version 0.9.4 (2022-01-18) Fixed Bugs - Fixed a bug in continueRecruitment() that could result in additional subjects to be recruited when the overall decision for a trial realization is NoGo but some cohorts of that trial realization have Go decisions. - Fixed a bug in performAnalyses() that would occur if all trial realizations of a scenario had a previous overall NoGo decision and would result in performAnalyses() to return an empty list for that scenario's posterior quantiles. - Specified R2jags package version requirement in DESCRIPTION to prevent 'unused argument' bug in performAnalyses() - Fixed warning message not showing when specifying deprecated arguments 'seed' and 'n_cores' in performAnalyses() New & Altered Features - Usage of doRNG package for fully reproducible results in parallel execution - Usage of hash tables for mapping unique trial realizations to scenario trial realizations resulting in performance improvement - Added a vignette that provides a short example on how to use bhmbasket in a high performance computing environment - JAGS model files stored in package instead of writing to temporary files - Updated Imports in DESCRIPTION - Updated CITATION - Minor changes in code - Updated documentation - Removed superfluous files Changes in version 0.9.3 (2021-10-11) Fixed Bugs - Fixed a bug in continueRecruitment() that could result in an error message and prevent the function from running although all conditions were met. - Fixed a bug leading to an error messages in getEstimates(). It would occur if in a previous call of performAnalyses() differences between cohorts were calculated, but not in the current call of performAnalyses(). New & Altered Features - Registration of parallel backend is now the responsibility of the user to allow for flexibility. A respective message is displayed in performAnalyses() if no parallel backend is registered. - Functions simulateScenarios() and performAnalyses() look up for their arguments 'n_trials' and 'n_mcmc_iterations', respectively, in the global environment if not provided by user. - Arguments 'n_subjects_list' and 'n_subjects_add_list' of the functions simulateScenarios() and continueRecruitment(), respectively, can be provided as a single vector for the case when all scenarios recruit the same number of subjects. - Arguments 'seed' and 'n_cores' were deprecated in performAnalyses(). The argument 'seed' was not used in the call of R2jags::jags(), see also the the documentation of 'jags.seed' in ?R2jags::jags. The argument 'n_cores' is no longer needed as the registration of the parallel backend is now the responsibility of the user. - Added the argument 'overall_min_nogos' to the function negateGoDecisions(). - Added an input check in function getEstimates() regarding the argument 'add_parameters'. - Changed date format in message from performAnalyses() - Updated documentation - Updated Imports and Suggests in DESCRIPTION - Minor changes in code Changes in version 0.9.2 (2021-04-07) - Fixed a rare bug that could result in wrong overall decision in getGoDecisions() in the presence of previous go decisions - Updated documentation - Updated Description in DESCRIPTION - Minor changes in code Changes in version 0.9.1 (2021-02-15) - Measures to fulfill CRAN policies and recommendations Changes in version 0.9.0 - Initial release
