new features

  • Allow the / symbol in group-level terms in
    the formula argument to indicate nested
    grouping structures.
  • Allow to compute WAIC and LOO
    based on the pointwise log-likelihood using argument
    pointwise to substantially reduce memory requirements.

other changes

  • Add horizontal lines to the errorbars in
    marginal_effects plots for factors.

bug fixes

  • Fix a bug that could lead to a cryptic error
    message when changing some parts of the model
    formula using the update method.
  • Fix a bug that could lead to an error when
    calling marginal_effects for predictors
    that were generated with the base::scale
    function thanks to Tom Wallis.
  • Allow interactions of numeric and categorical
    predictors in marginal_effects to be passed
    to the effects argument in any order.
  • Fix a bug that could lead to incorrect results
    of predict and related methods when called with
    newdata in models using the poly function
    thanks to Brock Ferguson.
  • Make sure that user-specified factor contrasts
    are always applied in multivariate models.
