dvir 3.3.0

New features

• Major rewrite of dviSolve(), which now uses the generalised likelihood ratio (GLR) for identifications in families with more than one missing person.
• New functions dviJoint(), swapOrientation() and formatSummary(), all used in dviSolve().
• plotDVI() now allows multiple AM rows, and has a new (experimental) argument style for choosing colouring style.
• dviSim() may now do multiple simulations, and gains an argument conditional. If TRUE, references are kept unchanged, while the missing persons are simulated conditional on these.
• Added dataset fire.

Other

• Switch to pedFamilias::readFam().
• Add dependency pbapply. Use pblapply() in dviJoint().
• directMatch() is much faster than before, when called from mergePM().

dvir 3.2.1

New features

• Add file dvi-example.fam as a system file. Hence avoid internet download during example (gave CRAN error).
• New function dviSolve() implementing a complete pipeline for solving a DVI case.
• New function amDrivenDVI() implementing AM-driven analysis.
• New functions setPairing() and excludePairing() for manually fixing or disallowing certain pairings.
• In findUndisputed() replace argument relax with its negation strict, and reverse the default to be strict = FALSE.
• Harmonise the output summaries of the main functions.
• New function dviSim() for simulating marker data onto a DVI dataset.
• New function findNonidentifiable().
• Export (experimental) checkDVI().
• mergePM() gains argument verbose.

Other

• Enforce family names in consolidateDVI().
• Reorganise and synchronise code in findExcluded() and exclusionMatrix().
• Use cat() instead of message() throughout.
• Remove deprecated summariseDVI() (replaced by print.dviData()).

Bug fixes

• findUndisputed() miscounted steps if verbose = F.
• jointDVI() sometimes dropped victims after findUndisputed().

dvir 3.1.0

• The dvir package is now maintained by Magnus D Vigeland.

• In print.dviData(), add info on sex of victims/missing.

• Add report to output of findExcluded().

• New function plotUndisputed().

dvir 3.0.1

• Fix bad URL reported by CRAN.
