After a long amount of work, the new version of hydroPSO (v0.5-0) was released today March 18th 2020, and it is available on CRAN now https://cran.r-project.org/package=hydroPSO

Among its new features stand out:

  • Full compatibility with (hydrological/environmental) models implemented as R functions (e.g., TUWmodel, GR4J, etc)

  • New vignette showing how to calibrate TUWmodel with hydroPSO.

  • New vignette showing how to calibrate TUWmodel with GR4J (and other models of the airGR family).

  • verification: now it is fully compatible with R-based models and allows parallelisation.

  • read_results, plot_results, read_out :much faster now due to the use of data.table::fread instead of read.table

  • New dataset Trancura9414001 with daily time series on P, Temp, PET, and Q from 1979 to 2016.

  • Package tested against R 4.0.0 (unstable) (2020-03-17 r77992) –“Unsuffered Consequences”, following an imperative request made by CRAN.

  • All the new features can be read at: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/hydroPSO/NEWS

I hope you enjoy it !.
