v0.4.0 (12 March 2017)

This release contains a number of new features and bug fixes.

New Features

  • GARD documentation is now hosted on Read-the-docs (#3, #13, #19)
  • Continuous integration testing on Travis-CI (#4)
  • Add timezone option to handle different timezones in the training/prediction data for the GEFS option (#18)
  • Default transform was changed to "No Transform" (#21)
  • New option for using training data mean/std to normalize prediction data. This is particularly useful when the prediction data record is quite short. (#22)
  • Improved minimum value handling in normalization (#25)
  • New option for passing the prediction straight through GARD without any statistical modification (#27)
  • Added new interactive option to allow users to specify what command line behavior they want (#31)
  • Improvements to output files, variable names are now sensible (#33)
  • New agg_method option (GEFS Only) to allow the method (sum or mean) that GARD will aggregate over the time indices in the prediction data (#35)
  • Weighted averaging (GEFS Only) #37
  • Allow for users to cache/reuse coefficients from the pure regression option (#39)
  • Experimental post-processing utilities inside of GARD (#49)
  • Experimental QQ-Normal transform (#51)

Bug Fixes

  • Fix to time precision / calendar gain (#14)
  • Fix to pure regression option when DEBUG=FALSE (#24)
