epifitter 1.0.0
CRAN release: 2026-04-12
Highlights
- Modernized the fitting workflow with shared input validation, more informative error messages, and improved grouped-model ergonomics.
- Refreshed the documentation site with updated articles, improved accessibility, dark mode support, and a clearer visual style for figures.
- Added a formal package citation, a vignette built around the bundled
PowderyMildewdataset, and expanded regression tests for area summaries and model fitting. - Corrected area-under-the-curve handling for repeated assessment times and strengthened defaults for nonlinear fitting workflows.
- Added optional confidence bands to
plot_fit()with residual and wild bootstrap interval methods. - Strengthened simulation input validation and corrected the logistic simulation equation when
Kis lower than 1. - Added optional weighted nonlinear least squares to
fit_nlin()andfit_nlin2(), including custom numeric weights, custom weight functions, and fitted-value weighting methods ("binomial","mean","cv", and"power") for proportional disease intensity data.
