• Documentation formatting fixes.

• Broken link in dataset documentation fixed.

Changes in version 4.1.2

BUG FIXES

• A number of fixes and corrections to package documentation.

Changes in version 4.1.1

NEW FEATURES

• Default proposals forBinomial,Poisson,Geometric, and alsoDiscUnif now implement the full DyadGen API for arbitrary dyad-level constraint combinations and TNT proposal weighting.

BUG FIXES

• Vignette's run time is now more predictable.

• Miscellaneous documentation fixes.

OTHER USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

• Term and termalike documentation has been ported to the new documentation system.

• Package tests now usetestthat.

• ProposalsPoisson,PoissonTNT,PoissonNonObserved,Geometric,GeometricTNT,Binomial, andBinomialTNT have been removed in favour of the more universalDisc andDiscTNT for random and TNT weights.

Changes in version 4.0.2

NEW FEATURES

• A vignette demonstrating the package's functionality has been added.

BUG FIXES

• Package now uses theergm 4.0 term API, which should result in a nontrivial speedup.

Changes in version 3.4.0

• Package has been ported to theergm 3.10 API changes.

OTHER USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

• Package now Importsstatnet.common rather than depending on it.

Changes in version 3.3.0

BUG FIXES

• Package now works when loaded but not attached.

• Test that was failing withergm3.6.0 has been fixed.

Changes in version 3.2

NEW FEATURES

• ergm.count now makes use of contrastive divergence inergm to obtain starting values forthe MCMLE.

• Poisson-reference ERGMs now have TNT-style proposal,optimized for sparse networks.

OTHER USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

• TheCMP term now adds, rather than subtracts\sum_{(i,j)}\log(y_{i,j}!), whereas 3.1.1 and prior versionsdid the opposite. This means that higher\theta_{\text{CMP}} represents overdispersion and lower\theta_{\text{CMP}} represents underdispersion.

Changes in version 3.1.1

OTHER USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

• E-mail address and affiliation of the maintainer have been updated.

Changes in version 3.1

THIS IS AN INITIAL RELEASE

• Although this is an initial release, it is depends very heavily ontheergm package version 3.1, and it isthus numbered 3.1.

NEW FEATURES

• A number of reference measures for count data have beenimplemented. See? 'ergm.count-package' and? 'ergm-references' for help.
