causaloptim 0.8.2
CRAN release: 2021-06-09
Big new features!
- Major update to the vertex enumeration algorithm (thanks to @gjo11). There is a new function called
optimize_effect_2 which uses the rcdd package to enumerate the vertices. This is significantly faster than Balke’s C++ code. This function is used by default in the shiny app. There are some minor differences in how the bounds are displayed, and note that the display of the vertices within MIN and MAX may differ from optimize_effect. The bounds are equivalent (just in a different order) in all of the test cases that we have looked at.
- New vignette explaining how the optimization was implemented (also thanks to @gjo11)
Small features
- interpret_bounds returns function that will now give a warning if bounds are invalid.
- Pull steps of analyze_graph out into separate modules.
Bugfixes
- Make sure that qs are unique in large problems
