• Migrated the git repository, changed all URLs to the new github location (niekdt/latrend)
• Fixed querying of model variables (#162)
• Reduced dtwclust example runtime

• trajectories(lcModel) outputs cluster membership (#153)
• Improved visuals of trajectory plots (#152)
• Fixed dynamic variable handling (#151)

latrend v1.6.0

• Resolved CRAN problems (#147)
• Re-added clusterCrit as dependency (#145)
• Ordering and labeling of cluster trajectories in plot (#144, #142)

• Resolved CRAN errors and warnings
• Alternative implementation of ASW and Dunn index due to removal of clusterCrit package from CRAN (#131, #132)
• New PAP.adh dataset (#130)
• Added support to lcmm methods for (parallel) gridsearch (#126)
• More robust implementation of meta methods, allowing argument pass-through (#128)
• Improved package documentation (#127)

New features

• Implemented virtual class for meta methods (#61)
• Implemented a meta method for repeatedly fitting a method and selecting the best fit (see lcFitRep, lcFitRepMin, lcFitRepMax) (#61)
• Implemented a meta method for repeatedly fitting a method until convergence (see lcFitConverged) (#61)

Major changes

• Made getLcMethod() generic

Other changes

• Added check for formula argument to LMKM method
• Added "converged" slot to lcModelPartition
• Generic validate() checks for correct output length
• Added workaround for erroneous R CMD check rmarkdown import note

• Removed usage of soon-to-be deprecated ggplot functions

Bug fixes

• Fixed minor bug in evaluate.lcMethod()

CRAN

• Resolved lcmm test error
• Shortened runtime of vignettes
• Shortened runtime of tests

Bug fixes

• Fixed bug in predict.lcModel() introduced by #116
• Attempt to fix the documentation warning about how the escaped ampersand is not escaped

Breaking changes

• Default initialization of lcMethodLcmmGMM and lcMethodLcmmGBTM is set to init = "lme" to support lcmm v2.0.0 #121

New features

• Added RMSE and WRMSE metrics
• plotMetric() now shows legend when grouping
• externalMetric(lcModels) returns a named distance matrix

Bug fixes

• Improved kml package compatibility; fixed errors on datasets with variable-length short trajectories
• Resolved warnings from latrendBoot() and latrendCV()

Breaking changes

• Removed redundant lcModelCustom in favor of lcModelPartition
• Renamed lcMethodCustom to lcMethodFunction for clarity

• Added RMSE and WRMSE metrics (#106)
