2005-10-25  Nicolas Brouard  <brouard@dhcp171.recherche.ined.fr>

	* Makefile (Module): Added Imach98.pmsp and howto crete a dmg

	* createdmg.sh (Module): Creates a dmg disk for MaC OS/X

2005-09-30    <lievre@PC_00595>

	* imach.c (Module): sump fixed, loop imx fixed, and simplifications.
	(Module): If the status is missing at the last wave but we know
	that the person is alive, then we can code his/her status as -2
	(instead of missing=-1 in earlier versions) and his/her
	contributions to the likelihood is 1 - Prob of dying from last
	health status (= 1-p13= p11+p12 in the easiest case of somebody in
	the healthy state at last known wave). Version is 0.98 

2004-05-20  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@localhost>

	* imach.c (Repository): 
	Agnes added a direct estimation of mortality (without the need of
	computing period prevalence and differential mortality). Thus here
	is version 0.97a which has been distributed to some people at
	REVES 16 in Brugge using an Inno setup.exe for PCs. Estimates of
	mortality using covariates is not done today. Estimating direct
	mortality is a very different process because it doesn't need
	interpolation because it is easy to get the lx from the force of
	the mortality mux in the simplest case as for a Gompertz (log mux
	= a + b*x . But we have been able to incorporate the new code
	within former imach program (0.96d) without deteriorating too much
	the understanding of the program. 

2003-06-25    <brouard@BROUARD>

	* imach.c (Module): On windows (cygwin) function asctime_r doesn't
	exist so I changed back to asctime which exists.
	(Module): Version 0.96b

2003-06-24    <brouard@BROUARD>

	* imach.c (Module): Some bugs corrected for windows. Also, when
	mle=-1 a template is output in file "or"mypar.txt with the design
	of the covariance matrix to be input.

2003-06-25  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@homebrou>

	* imach.c (Repository): Duplicated warning errors corrected.
	(Repository): Elapsed time after each iteration is now output. It
	helps to forecast when convergence will be reached. Elapsed time
	is stamped in powell.  We created a new html file for the graphs
	concerning matrix of covariance. It has extension -cov.htm.

2003-06-23  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@homebrou>

	* imach.c (Repository): Create a sub-directory where all the secondary files are. Only imach, htm, gp and r(imach) are on the main directory. Correct time and other things.

2003-06-18  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@homebrou>

	* imach.c (Repository): Suppress abusive calls to append to file html (solution was to put fichtm as a global variable. Version 0.96

2003-06-17  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@homebrou>


	* imach.c (Repository): Check when date of death was earlier that
	current date of interview. It may happen when the death was just
	prior to the death. In this case, dh was negative and likelihood
	was wrong (infinity). We still send an "Error" but patch by
	assuming that the date of death was just one stepm after the
	interview.
	(Repository): Because some people have very long ID (first column)
	we changed int to long in num[] and we added a new lvector for
	memory allocation. But we also truncated to 8 characters (left
	truncation)

	(Repository): No more line truncation errors.

2003-06-14  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@homebrou>

	* imach.c (Repository): Add of a routine likelione (likelihood
	only once) which prints on a text file
	(ilk) the contributions to the likelihood for each
	individual/wave.

2003-06-13  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@homebrou>
	* imach.c (Repository): Replace "freqsummary" at a correct
	place. It differs from routine "prevalence" which may be called
	many times. Probs is memory consuming and must be used with
	parcimony.

2003-06-17    <brouard@BROUARD>

	* timeval.h (Module): Added included file to make use of
	gettimeofday working on win32 with cygwin.

2003-05-16  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@brouard>
	* imach.c (Module): Insert of a warning if the delay between two
	waves is negative.

	* imach.c (Module): 

2003-05-03    <brouard@BROUARD>

	* imach.c: Some cleaning

2003-03-28    <brouard@BROUARD>
	* imach.c (Module): In version up to 0.92 likelihood was computed
	as if date of death was unknown. Death was treated as any other
	health state: the date of the interview describes the actual state
	and not the date of a change in health state. The former idea was
	to consider that at each interview the state was recorded
	(healthy, disable or death) and IMaCh was corrected; but when we
	introduced the exact date of death then we should have modified
	the contribution of an exact death to the likelihood. This new
	contribution is smaller and very dependent of the step unit
	stepm. It is no more the probability to die between last interview
	and month of death but the probability to survive from last
	interview up to one month before death multiplied by the
	probability to die within a month. Thanks to Chris
	Jackson for correcting this bug.  Former versions increased
	mortality artificially. The bad side is that we add another loop


	which slows down the processing. The difference can be up to 10%


	lower mortality.





2002-05-30    <brouard@BROUARD>





	* 





	* imach.c (Module): Add correlation matrix of one-step


	probabilities and covariance matrix
