v2.1.0 - Oldenburger 3D Tage

• new dependency: cog for code generation
• cuda: fix 256-bit descriptor size for significant speedup at larger stack sizes
• bicos: support disparities smaller than 0
• cli: remove points with Z < 0, introduce --allow-negative-z
• cuda, cpu: reduce memory usage (by adding another kernel template parameter...)
• lib: be consistent with throwing BICOS::Exceptions inside of the library

Full Changelog: v2.0.0...v2.1.0

v2.0.0 - left-right consistency check

• breaking: make BICOS::Config.nxcorr_threshold std::optional<float> instead of double since it is not required for new BICOS variants
• breaking: make BICOS::Config.min_variance std::optional<float> instead of std::optional<double>
• breaking(cuda): change BICOS::Config.precision to single width floating point by default as double precision is not affecting results in a meaningful way
• breaking: add BICOS::Config.variant to add the possibility to specify the way BICOS excludes duplicates.
• breaking: add Image *corrmap = nullptr parameter to BICOS::match(...) to optionally output computed correlation map
• build: support including BICOS as static dependency with meson
• cuda, cpu: optimize reusage of buffers
• add support for 256-bit descriptors for experimentation

Full Changelog: v1.2.2...v2.0.0

v1.2.2 - Switching to C++17

• drop C++20 dependency, library is C++17 now by default since C++20 was causing issues on some platforms
• vendor fmt and cxxopts when they are either out of date or missing from the host system

Full Changelog: v1.2.1...v1.2.2

v1.2.1 - compatibility improvements

• build: make libBICOS compatible with C++17
• build(cuda): disable 128-bit descriptors when CUDA version has no support for it
• test: remove testdata from repository and provide shellscript for external download of new testdata

Full Changelog: v1.2.0...v1.2.1

v1.2.0 - public release

• add configurable parameter min_variance
• cli: set saner default values
• cli: add ability to compute ascii-pointcloud given Q-matrix
• cuda: increase compatibility with other GPUs
• build: set minimum meson version to 1.1.0

Full Changelog: v1.1.0...v1.2.0

v1.1.0

• bicos: implement full descriptor transform
• cli: add ability to compute pointcloud and save it to .xyz ascii file when reprojection matrix Q is supplied, assuming inputs are rectified
• cli: add stacksize to limit number of processed images, for cases when too many images are present in directory
• cli, cuda: show latencies for upload + download
• cuda: determine blocksize at runtime for portability to different GPUs
• cuda: add ability to reduce nxcorr precision to float instead of double for computational efficiency
