long-standing feature request by Henric Nilsson
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-94 (2008-01-30)
o documentation updates
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-93 (2007-11-30)
o It is now an error to ask for more surrogate variables
than actually available. Thanks to Henric Nilsson.
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-92 (2007-11-22)
o predict(<ctree-object>) computed predictions
for observations with zero weights (by passing them down the tree).
This was already done this way by predict(<cforest-object>) but resulted
in an error for ctree()s.
o minbucket added to ctree_control()
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-91 (2007-09-26)
o bugfix: NAs in factors lead to segfaults on 64bit machines

variables containing missing values, especially factors.
o add examples to regression tests
o new function `proximity' (feature request by Henric Nilsson)
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-90 (2007-09-24)
o new defaults for `control' argument of `cforest': unbiased
forests are now grown by default
o new defaults for binary classification tree visualization:
stacked bar charts are used by default.
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-14 (2007-07-23)
o fix problem in `varimp' introduced by new weights handling
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-13 (2007-07-23)
o update `mvt.f'
o improve the memory footprint of RandomForest objects
substancially (by removing the weights slots from each node).
More careful revision of the predict and fitting code is needed.
o predictions for cforest with multivariate response are
now returned in a matrix (should be a data.frame)
o remove confusing `no admissible split found' warning
(which simply meant that the `minsplit' wasn't met).
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-12 (2007-06-28)
o adjust to coin 0.6-4
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-11 (2007-06-11)

o `mob_control' now has an `na.action' argument
o cforest with replace = FALSE, fraction = ...
can now deal with weights (spotted by Carolin Strobl
<carolin.strobl@stat.uni-muenchen.de>)
o interface to LAPACK (`dgesdd' for computing a SVD)
directly. As a side-effect, the svdmem class can be
simplified and no memory allocation during
tree growing is necessary (which results in a measureable
performance gain)
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-10 (2007-02-28)
o internal infrastructure for fit(x, y) interfaces,
including a VariableFrame method for matrices.
o deal with factors with only one level and variables where
all observations are NA
o don't compute design matrices in `ModelEnvFormula'
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-9 (2007-02-02)
o internal changes to data objects: joint transformations
only necessary for response variables (new class `ResponseFrame')
but we need to distinguish between testing (using ranks, for
example) and prediction (means of raw data!).
Problem spotted by Henric Nilsson <nilsson.henric@gmail.com>.
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-8 (2007-01-15)
o thicker median lines in boxplots
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-7 (2007-01-15)

(spotted by Henric Nilsson <henric.nilsson@sorch.se>)

o R-2.5.0 does not allow to change the storage.mode of factors
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-5 (2006-10-27)
o adjusted p values computed with testtype = "MonteCarlo"
did not take dimensionality of the underlying linear statistics
into account. It is now ensured that _p values_ are resampled,
not test statistics.
o fix escape problems
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-4 (2006-09-15)
o make sure `maxsurrogates' exceeds number of input variables
o fix problems reported by valgrind
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-3 (2006-09-08)
o don't call RNG functions in mvt (this is done in C code, once)
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-2 (2006-09-07)
o mob() can't currently handle missing values,
they are removed and a warning is given.
o add `methods' and `vcd' to Depends:
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.9-0 (2006-08-31)
o node_barplot() can now also draw stacked barplots.
o simplify handling of ordinal variables. It is now possible
to have multiple (ordinal) response variables.
o some documentation updates
o fix problems with NA handling for factors
o make sure minsplit criterion applies in the presence of missing
values. Bug spotted by Han Lee <Han.Lee@geodecapital.com>.
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.8-8 (2006-08-23)
o export `varimp' (variable importance measures for cforest())
o documentation updates
o add codetools checks
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.8-7 (2006-07-17)
o REAL(NULL) now gives an error in C code and scores could be
potentially NULL: fixed for the time being.
o add `show' method for BinaryTree and RandomForest objects
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.8-6 (2006-05-22)
o add some validity checks for hyper parameters
o add function `varimp' for computing variable importance
measures for some random forests (this is still experimental and
thus not exported yet, so use `party:::varimp')
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.8-5 (2006-04-25)
o all hyper parameters to `cforest' are now controlled using
objects of a new class `ForestControl' which can be created using
`cforest_control()'.
o sampling of a fraction of the observations without replacement
is now available for the `cforest' implementation of random forest.
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.8-4 (2006-04-04)
o renamed argument `teststattype' to `teststat' with defaults
c("quad", "max") in order to be compatible with the `coin' package,
version >= 0.4-5
o use `1 - (1 - p)^k' instead of `p * k' for Bonferroni-adjustment.
Node 7 for the `GlaucomaM' data is now splitted in addition (in tms).
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.8-3 (2006-03-20)
o `predict' returned nonsensical results in case a tree was
fitted to a multivariate response variable. Now a list with one
element for each observation is returned.
CHANGES IN party VERSION 0.8-2 (2006-03-01)
o plotting buglets fixed: improved axis in MOB plots,
correct (transparent) background on jpeg() and png() devices.
CHANGES IN `party' VERSION 0.8-1 (2006-02-23)
o `testtype' can be Bonferroni, MonteCarlo, Univariate and
Teststatistic (instead of Raw)
o removed unnecessary constraint on weights in `cforest'
o maximize raw test statistics for random forest by default.
CHANGES IN `party' VERSION 0.8-0 (2006-02-15)
o `cforest', an implementation of Breiman's random forest ensemble
algorithm based on conditional inference trees (`ctree') has been
added. It is somewhat experimental and thus for advanced users only.
o `mob', an object-oriented implementation of a recently suggested
algorithm for model-based recursive partitioning (Zeileis, Hothorn,
Hornik, 2005) has been added. It works out of the box for partitioning
(generalized) linear regression models, others can be easily plugged
in. A new vignette "MOB" describes the implementation ideas and provides
a few examples.
o new S3 generic reweight() with methods for (g)linearModel
for re-fitting a model with different weights.
o new argument `maxdepth' to `ctree_control' which allows for
growing trees of a fixed maximum depth.
o LazyData: yes
CHANGES IN `party' VERSION 0.3-6 (2006-02-06)
o use a different way to deal with NAMESPACEs during in tests/*.R
following a suggestion by Prof. Brian D. Ripley
o use LazyLoad: yes instead of SaveImage: yes

CHANGES IN `party' VERSION 0.3-1 (2005-12-02)
o fix bug introduced in version 0.3-0: coin:::factor_trafo applies
treatment contrasts in case of a binary factor but we need the full
design matrix
o documentation updates
CHANGES IN `party' VERSION 0.3-0 (2005-11-29)
o `ytrafo' and `xtrafo' functions make use of `coin:::trafo' now,
i.e. the handling of influence functions and transformations
has been unified in packages `party' and `coin'
CHANGES IN `party' VERSION 0.2-10 (2005-11-08)
o new slot `data' in BinaryTree objects, slots inputnames and levels
have been removed
CHANGES IN `party' VERSION 0.2-9 (2005-10-19)

o make gfortran happy
CHANGES IN `party' VERSION 0.2-5 (2005-08-19)
o ctree() now searches the global environment for variables given
in `formula' when the `data' argument is unspecified.
CHANGES IN `party' VERSION 0.2-4 (2005-07-07)
o names of `criterion' element in `SplittingNode' objects were wrong
o categorical splits with `ctree_control(testtype = "MonteCarlo")'
were potentially wrong
CHANGES IN `party' VERSION 0.2-3 (2005-06-29)
o print and plot only levels which are available in a node (for nominal
splits)
CHANGES IN `party' VERSION 0.2-2 (2005-06-27)
o ./src/Makedeps will be automatically generated (on Windows)
and must not be part of the source-package.
o vignette cosmetics
