spatialreg 1.4-4

• slacken update_bname argument tests to adapt for splm::spml

• fix failing dont_run examples

• add NO_LEGACY_NONAPI defined to headers

spatialreg 1.4-3 (2026-03-21)

• use R_getVar in place of Rf_findVarInFrame for R >= 4.5.0

• replace MASS::mvrnorm with mvtnorm::rmvnorm in impacts methods or elsewhere to ensure better stability with given seeds

spatialreg 1.4-2 (2025-09-06)

• remove tests in test_Durbin_factor.R for sacsarlm and spBreg_* failing under MKL 2023-2

spatialreg 1.4-1 (2025-09-04)

• import spdep >= 1.4.1

• annotate impacts output with "dy/dx" or "(F)" to distinguish continuous and categorical independent variables

• suggest codingMatrices to expand examples with factors (categorical variables)

• introduce warnings for factors (categorical variables) in Durbin models (errorsarlm, lagsarlm, sacsarlm, spBreg_lag, spBreg_err, spBreg_sac and lm.SLX)

• convert error to Rf_error in src/ml_sse.c to accommodate R_NO_REMAP

spatialreg 1.3-6 (2024-12-02)

• Remove remaining spData ESRI shapefile use

• #56 add Anselin-Kelejian (1997) test to stsls, reported in its summary method, analogous to the reporting in the summary method of lagsarlm of the Lagrange multiplier test, both for residual spatial autocorrelation

• adding missing man page anchors

spatialreg 1.3-5 (2024-08-19)

• conforming with STRICT_R_HEADERS=1

• Condition on forthcoming tmap 4

• #52 subgraph updates

spatialreg 1.3-4 (2024-06-10)

• migrate from ESRI Shapefile to GeoPackage #50

spatialreg 1.3-3 (2024-05-31)

• protect errorsarlm against missing Durbin= if only intercept

• fix longstanding bugs in getVmate in a non-default side logic branch

• add return_impacts= to lmSLX to work around issues with aliased variables; impacts should be improved to handle this case when time permits

• add sqrt=TRUE in calls to Matrix determinant methods in matrix_ldet

• add igraph (>= 2.0.0) in DESCRIPTION for re-named igraph functions

spatialreg 1.3-2 (2024-02-06)

• pass through SlX formula in call

• re-corrected #19 because the fitted model weights component may be NULL

• suppress warning from multcomp::glht as the test which throws the warning is discarded

spatialreg 1.3-1 (2023-11-23)

• move expm from Imports to Suggests #42

• added zero.policy pass-through to spdep::mat2listw calls in predict.Sarlm and to spdep::sn2listw in sids_models.Rmd; set spdep requirement to 1.3-1

• corrected #19 because the fitted model weights component is never NULL, but may have a single unique value

spatialreg 1.2-9 (2023-05-25)

• raised #39, no support for weights in SEM/SDEM/SLX #39

• address #37; #38 remains (no formula Durbin support for prediction using any Sarlm object)

• address #19 by not reporting AIC where case weights are used in spautolm or errorsarlm

• address bug in predict() for new data, SDEM. Others in #37, #38 need work.

• Further added checking for SLX/SDEM impacts and edge/corner cases; starting transition to use multcomp in place og gmodels

spatialreg 1.2-8 (2023-03-01)

• Attending to SLX/Durbin/non-W-style weights: #7, #36, #26, #35, #30 #24, #23, partly based on #13

spatialreg 1.2-6 (2022-10-07)

• make local copy of gmodels::estimable() for lm objects only, add authors to package contributors

• -Wstrict-prototypes fixes

spatialreg 1.2-5 (2022-08-16)

• updating coercion for Matrix 1.4-2

• updating dontrun/donttest for package split (previously unchecked, mostly in aple)

spatialreg 1.2-3 (2022-04-18)

• protect definition of USE_FC_LEN_T

• unescape underscores in help pages

spatialreg 1.2-1 (2021-11-11)

• Add Fortran character handling USE_FC_LEN_T WRE §6.6.1

• Add spdep split-out functionality

spatialreg 1.1-8 (2021-05-03)

• #18 standardize use of coef() methods for (some) fitted model summary objects

• https://github.com/tidymodels/broom/issues/1003#issuecomment-798694400 changing spatialreg model output class names: spdep sarlm -> spatialreg Sarlm, spautolm -> Spautolm, stsls -> Stsls, gmsar -> Gmsar, lagmess -> Lagmess, SLX -> , SlX, MCMC_s*_g -> MCMC_s*_G, SFResult -> SfResult, ME_res -> Me_res, lagImpact -> LagImpact, WXImpact -> WXimpact

• #16 merged coordination of impacts methods (Gianfranco Piras)

• #14 merged correction to SDEM and SLX impacts when a lagged intercept is present (Tobias Rüttenauer).

• #6, #11 na.action and precomputed eigenvalue bug

• #9 Griddy Gibbs issue

• #8 Predict method for SLX

• #7, #13-14 Offset impacts for SDEM/SLX

• #5, #10 Panel Durbin= argument

spatialreg 1.1-3 (2019-04-01)

• #2 Split spatialreg from spdep; spdep functions still present there as deprecated
