Changelog

Source: NEWS.md

searchlight 0.1.0 (in development)

  • Add an offline HTML report with source coverage, analysis scope, diagnostics, separate uncertainty sections and an installed Markdown/Rmd template.

  • Preserve submission months across valid UTC-to-London calendar crossings and keep wholly missing force counts unavailable in ratio summaries.

  • Bound national spatial-assignment memory by reusing exact coordinate work without removing repeated events.

  • Establish an independent R package, source register, and milestone checks.

  • Bundle the public force list and Census 2021 / PACE 2023 classification tables.

  • Add bulk archive discovery, verified caching, immutable snapshots and whole-file revision selection with provenance contracts.

  • Bundle the May-July 2026 sample, retaining missing Dyfed-Powys submissions.

  • Add versioned ONS boundaries, projected point assignment and boundary-distance diagnostics; preserve records without coordinates.

  • Add verified Census TS021 and RM032 exposure tables with stable ethnicity code matching, age/sex cross-tabs and explicit user exposures.

  • Add full-grid coverage, financial-year benchmarks, midnight and snap-point diagnostics. Date-only UTC strings cannot evade the summer midnight screen.

  • Add event rates with submitted population-time, exact Poisson ratio intervals, missing-ethnicity bounds, comparable exposure scenarios, age-sex direct standardisation and count-model bootstrap or posterior rank uncertainty.

  • Render an offline assumptions vignette with separately labelled sampling intervals and allocation ranges, and verified hand-calculated examples.

  • Add Poisson/negative-binomial count models, optional lme4 random effects and exploratory residual Moran diagnostics.

  • Add multivariate CAR disparity with separate ethnicity fields, full joint posterior ratios, exceedance probabilities, convergence diagnostics and maps.

  • Add a synthetic lattice generator and replicated spatial recovery evidence.

  • Add three separate hit-rate diagnostics and a time-quality-gated darkness design with explicit UK daylight-saving transitions and exclusion audits.

  • Correct the published Other Black archive label, audit every raw sample ethnicity label, and warn on unrecognised future source classifications.
