Changes in version 3.0.4 (2024-10-29)                  

  - fixed distance exponentiation and group permuting in permutation
    test
  - added permutation model inference procedure
  - added universal null and enclosing radius functions

                 Changes in version 3.0.3 (2024-03-12)                  

  - Updated documentation for JOSS paper release

                 Changes in version 3.0.2 (2024-01-21)                  

  - all CRAN issues for this update were caused by the rho parameter,
    which invokes external C++ code. We therefore fixed these issues by
    removing the rho parameter from the predict_diagram_kpca and
    diagram_distance examples, from all tests and in the
    ML_and_inference.Rmd file. This parameter has been kept and is still
    tested, just not tested on CRAN
  - sped up the independence_test example by only showing the
    Gram-matrix approach
  - removed warnings from benchmarking plots in Speed.Rmd
  - removed dependency on package TDA which is currently unavailable on
    CRAN

                        Changes in version 3.0.1                        

  - same updates as 3.0.0 but with more efficient vignette building

                 Changes in version 3.0.0 (2023-12-07)                  

  - added ability to precompute distance/Gram matrices for ML and
    inference functions
  - added fast approximation to Fisher information metric
  - added vignettes for speedups, HCP analysis, personalized analyses
    and distance calculation comparisons (and removed those parts from
    the main vignette)
  - fixed issues with cv model fitting in diagram_ksvm
  - added automatic calculation of t parameters in diagram_ksvm
  - decreased memory load on parallel functions (except for permutation
    test loss function)
  - added checks for 0 variance distance matrices in diagram_ksvm
  - added comparisons against package rgudhi
  - updated DESCRIPTION
  - added interpretations tools for vr graphs and multiple
    representative (co) cycles
  - improved HCP analysis
  - resolved some distance 0 cases in diagram_distance

                 Changes in version 2.0.4 (2023-01-25)

    examples and vignettes

  - added more examples of TDA applications in publications

  - added PyH function for fast persistence diagram calculations with
    python
  - added bootstrap_persistence_thresholds for finding "real"
    topological features in a data set
  - added plot_diagram function for plotting persistence diagrams, with
    or without persistence thresholds
  - fixed problem with diagram_distance in which one of the two diagrams
    was empty in the desired dimension

                 Changes in version 0.1.3 (2022-10-02)                  

  - fixed small bug with computing mean cv model error for svm
  - added tryCatch's around parallelized code to ensure that clusters
    are closed even when errors occur
