• Histograms use log scaling, and will overlap each other with a lower opacity for comparison.
• Warnings WILL be generated when plots/histograms are created due to how the log scaling works in R.

• Intermediate reports can now have small counts suppressed when running from the console or UI.
• Histograms/plots values are stacked within this version.

• An additional histogram is generated during probabilistic linkage if ground truth is available.
• Missingness is now done manually via the "Linkage Algorithm Output" page. Selecting the "Missingness" field type will determine how many records within that field exist or are missing.
• Title of the final and intermediate report have changed to "Data Linkage Quality Report" and contain a subtitle indicating the two datasets being linked.
• An additional function has been added which will provide the user with a data frame of the fields and field labels that will have missingness indicators generated.
• An additional parameter has been added which allows the user to provide a numeric threshold for which any fields that contain a count below that value will be automatically removed with the removed fields being mentioned in the footnotes of the tables they originally belonged to.

• Fixing bug when applying cutoffs or obtaining missingness with output fields that use the same source field more than once.
• Making the UI easier to use/navigate:
  • Run Linkage algorithms page has been re-ordered to make selecting and seeing differences easier.
  • View linkage iterations page has a toggle to prevent clutter.
  • Manage linkage algorithms page shows the selected ground truth that belongs to the dataset pair.
• Field names, along with the applied linkage rules and comparison rules have been re-written/re-structured to be easier to read and follow within the UI and generated reports.

• Updated the UI for the "Run Algorithms" page to allow for easier algorithm and report type selection.
• Added a new extra parameter which will allow the user to designate the "Main Report" when generating a Final Report for a list of algorithms. The user should list said algorithm as the final value in a vector of provided algorithms so that the other algorithms can be ran, and so that their data can appear in the appendix of the final report that is generated.

• Fixing small UI bug on the "Manage Linkage Algorithms" page.

autolink - December 4th, 2024

• Fixing bug when generating threshold plot of ground truth selection if the ground truth variable was also used in either the blocking or matching criteria (of a probabilistic pass).

autolink- December 4th, 2024

• Fixing bug when using a ground truth variable as a blocking or matching key in either a deterministic or probabilistic pass.
• Adding the calculation of performance measures to deterministic passes.

autolink- December 4th, 2024

• Fixed bug when selecting output fields with a matching or blocking variable that used the left or right alternative field linkage rule.
• Fixed a bug when using the ground truth variable as a blocking or matching variable in a probabilistic pass.

autolink - December 3rd, 2024

• Fixing tooltip positioning and opacity in the GUI so that it is accessible for acceptance and comparison rules.
