Release v1.3
Release Notes
This is a major release. The following changes were implemented:
- Now the script requires Numpy v1.11 or higher to work properly. The script will check your Numpy version once you run it.
- The parameter type in the
extract_areas
function has been renamed as form to avoid the use of a Python keyword. - Taking advantage of the new features implemented in Numpy v1.11, the
find_grain_size
function implements new methods to estimate the bin size in the histograms including an automatic mode (the default) and the Freedman-Diaconis', Sturge's, Scott's, Doane's, Rice's, and square root rules. See more details in the script documentation or here. - The output showed in the shell after calling the
find_grain_size
function have been reorganized and improved for better clarity. - The
derive3D
function automatically generates a text (csv) file containing the midpoints, class frequencies and cumulative volume estimated. - The titles of the different plots have been renamed for better clarity.
- The
get_Scott_binsize
andget_FD_binsize
functions have been deprecated. - Improvements in the function specifications.
- Minor changes to meet the Style Guide for Python Code
Upcoming features:
- New method to estimate an optimal kde bandwidth in multimodal populations
