Release version 0.8.1

Hotfix release adding the following features and fixing the following bugs:

Added

• Power spectrum calculation function.

Fixed

• Pypi package creation.

Release version 0.8.0

New major release, mainly adding support for Ghost Imaging (structured illumination).
In particular, this release adds the following features and fixes the following bugs:

Added

• Ghost imaging support (structured illumination):
  • Theoretical mask generation (incl. MURA, Half-Gaussian, Bernoulli)
  • Dedicated projector (CPU based).

Fixed

• Circular mask initialization

Release version 0.7.2

New minor release, adding the following features and fixing the following bugs:

Added

• Default VolumeGeometry creation from volume.
• Tapering border size support in volume mask.
• 1D gradient-based regularizer shortcut.
• Isotropic undecimented wavelet regularizer support.

Fixed

• Fluorescence line selection case-sensitive bug.
• Verbose feedback in parabolic fitting for parameter tuning.

Release version 0.7.1

New minor release, adding the following features and fixing the following bugs:

Added

• More documentation / tutorial content.
• Energy conversion functions (keV to m, and viceversa).
• Tapering for truncated volumes in FSC computation.

Fixed

• Typo that preventing using ProjectionGeometry from models.
• Shape dimensions (XYZ vs ZXY) interpretation in VolumeGeometry and other functions.
• Cross-validation data term initialization in solvers.
• Tapering to circular masks.

Release version 0.7.0

New major release, adding the following features and fixing the following bugs:

Added

• Wide API refactoring: renamed various modules, and moved processing routines to sub-package.
• Initial draft of tutorial. More documentation on the way.
• Line intersection computation.
• Plotting of FRCs.
• Tests: initial support for projectors.

Fixed

• Typo in function name.

• FRC/FSC axes selection.

In particular, the API change breaks compatibility with the past, and it thus required a major version bump.

The scikit-image and astra-toolbox backend still present an inconsistent rotation center position definition. There is now a PR to fix the rotation center position in scikit-image: scikit-image/scikit-image#6489
