Enhancements

  • Add clariate.analyze.interaction_test

  • Improved logging in r_survey ewas

  • Corrected instructions on installing R packages with Conda

  • Improved documentation of Regression classes

  • Manhattan plots have a “return_figure” option

Fixes

  • r_survey regression no longer uses an LRT for binary variables in order to make it concordant with regression in python

Tests

  • Added a test for outlier removal

v1.1.1 (2020-09-12)

Fixes

  • Fixed a failing test caused by newer dependency versions

v1.1.0 (2020-08-14)

Enhancements

  • Add a subset method on the SurveyDesignSpec class

  • Refactored regression so that the ewas function now takes a regression_kind parameter

Tests

  • Added tests for the subset method

v1.0.1 (2020-06-12)

Enhancements

  • Improve the legend in the top_results plot and add additional parameters similar to the manhattan plots

Fixes

  • Update the default names for the ewas parameter single_cluster in the CLI

  • Add the “drop_unweighted” parameter to the printed result of Survey Designs

  • Fix an IndexError caused by non-continuous variables being passed to describe.skewness

  • Fix the travis build (the bioconda channel must be specified to install r-survey)

Tests

  • Added a plot test for passing “None” as the cutoff to the top results plot

v1.0.0 (2020-06-04)

Fixes

  • Fixed ewas_r not working for some parameter combinations

  • Improved the top_results plot to work with non-continuous values (which don’t have Betas)

  • Corrected ewas results for some scenarios (strata and clusters) related to missing data (incorrect degrees of freedom)

Tests

  • Added additional analysis tests with realistic data (more missing values)

  • All analysis tests are now passing with 1E-4 relative tolerance

  • Added the first plot tests

v0.10.0 (2020-05-28)

Enhancements

  • Manhattan plot split into three functions (raw, bonferroni, and fdr) and now has a custom threshold parameter

  • Use Pandas v1.0+

  • Refactored regression objects to simplify internal code and potentially allow for more types of regression in the future

  • Added an ewas_r function that seamlessly runs the ewas analysis in R, using the R survey library * This is recommended when using weights, as the python version has some inconsistencies in some edge cases

  • Added a skewness function

  • Added a top_results plot

  • Add a drop_unweighted parameter to the SurveyDesignSpec to provide an easy (if potentially incorrect) workaround for observations with missing weights

Fixes

  • Provide a warning and a convenience function when categorical types have categories with no occurrences

  • Catch errors when categorizing variables with many unique string values

  • Corrected some edge-case EWAS results when using weights in the presence of missing values

  • Avoid some cryptic errors by ensuring the input to some functions is a DataFrame and not a Series

Tests

Many additional tests were added, especially related to EWAS

v0.9.1 (2019-11-20)

Minor documentation update

v0.9.0 (2019-10-31)

Enhancements

  • Add a figure parameter to histogram and manhattan plots in order to plot to an existing figure

  • SurveyDesignSpec can now utilize more parameters, such as fpc

  • The larger (numeric or alphabetic) binary variable is always treated as the success case for binary phenotypes

  • Improved logging during EWAS, including printing the survey design information

  • Extensively updated documentation

  • CLARITE now has a logo!

Fixes

  • Corrected an indexing error that sometimes occurred when removing rows with missing weights

  • Improve precision in EWAS results for weighted analyses by using sf instead of 1-cdf

  • Change some column names in the EWAS output to be more clear

Tests

An R script and the output of that script is now included. The R output is compared to the python output in the test suite in order to ensure analysis result concordance between R and Python for several analysis scenarios.

v0.8.0 (2019-09-03)

Enhancements

  • Allow file input in the command line for skip/only

  • Make the manhattan plot function less restrictive of the data passed into it

Fixes

  • Categorization would silently fail if there was only one variable of a given type

v0.7.0 (2019-07-23)

Enhancements

  • Improvements to the CLI and printed log messages.

  • The functions from the ‘Process’ module were put into the ‘Modify’ module.

  • Datasets are no longer split apart when categorizing.

v0.6.0 (2019-07-11)
