Changes in version 1.4.0 (2026-02-20) Changes in version 1.3.5 - Modified the apply_quality_ctrl function to accept data even without genomics variables Changes in version 1.3.4 (2025-09-03) - Fixed the cross-references issue in man/metavariable_agg.Rd and man/join_vars_to_ontol.Rd Changes in version 1.3.3 (2023-06-05) - Fixed typo in vignette - Added CITATION file and added reference to citation in vignette Changes in version 1.3.2 (2023-02-01) General - Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package. - Added link to eHDPrep's github repository in package documentation. - Updated various documentation (functions and vignette). - Now minimally requires and is compatible with dplyr 1.1.0 (#3, @DavisVaughan). Quality Control - completeness_heatmap() has been altered to avoid an issue of plotting over other plots. Now requires plot.new() call. Semantic Enrichment - Added function, metavariable_variable_descendants(), to more easily access relationships between meta-variables and their descendant variables. - semantic_enrichment() now accepts a label attribute to label meta-variables with the parameter: label_attr. - semantic_enrichment() now accepts an ontology as a data frame edge table, as a path to an edge table in CSV format, or as a tidygraph/igraph graph. - Added function, edge_tbl_to_graph(), to convert edge tables, as data frames, to tidygraph graphs. - Added data, example_edge_table, to demonstrate edge_tbl_to_graph(). - example_ontology is now generated from example_edge_table. - metavariable_info() now can exclude meta-variables with an information content less than a threshold from output with the IC_threshold parameter. This will exclude non-specific meta-variables from consideration when output is passed to metavariable_agg() (e.g. ontology's root node).
