Trackpy v0.4.1

This is a minor release with some important fixes. Additionally, PIMS is no longer a required dependency, which makes installation easier.

Trackpy v0.4

This is a major release that includes new choices for linking and feature-finding algorithms, as well as many performance increases and clean-ups. It is recommended for all trackpy users, but may require minor changes to existing code, as detailed below.

See http://soft-matter.github.io/trackpy/v0.4/whatsnew.html for a full overview of the changes.

Trackpy v0.3.3

This is the first trackpy release to support Python 3.6. It is identical to v0.3.2 except for a minor fix for Python 3.6 compatibility that does not change any scientific functionality.

Trackpy v0.3.2

- Bugfix release to patch over bug in scipy 0.18.0 cKDTree.

Trackpy v0.3.1

This release contains a number of bugfixes and enhancements: pair correlation functions, faster mean squared displacement calculations, and an increase of feature finding precision. See http://soft-matter.github.io/trackpy/v0.3.1/whatsnew.html for a full overview of the changes.

Trackpy v0.3.0

This release is strongly recommended for all users, as it brings major improvements in speed and 3D feature-finding, and many other functionality and accuracy improvements.

Please be sure to read the "What's New" page in the documentation before upgrading, especially the item under "Enhancements" about calculating masses. You may have to make minor edits to your scripts and notebooks to use them with v0.3.

If you are an Anaconda user, upgrading is as simple as "conda update -c soft-matter trackpy". Other methods are shown on the Installation page in the documentation.

Trackpy v0.2.4

This is a simple maintenance release, introducing no functionality changes. The packaging and installation are simplified.

Henceforth, to install trackpy on any platform, we recommend conda install -c soft-matter trackpy, but pip install trackpy is also supported.

Trackpy v0.2.3

This release contains some important improvements, cleanup, and bug fixes:

• Compatibility with Python 3, official support for Python 2.7 and 3.4
• More efficient storage of frame-wise data in HDF format (~40X smaller files)
• Better-looking and more flexible annotate function for inspecting feature locations
• Cleaner installation and version-number handling (thanks, @leouieda )
• Various minor bug fixes

Trackpy v0.2.2

This is primarily a bugfix release. Changes include:

• Fixed bug in annotate when specifying a single threshold value.
• Added preliminary (passing) tests of 3D feature-identification capabilities.
• Fixed error in building API reference documentation.
• Removed ephemeral MANIFEST file from the distribution.

Trackpy v0.2.1

This release includes some enhancements, bug fixes, and cleanup:

• Enhancements and bug fixes to the new prediction framework
• Ability to use locate float-type image data (crucial for compatibility with the new PIMS release, v0.2)
• Faster access to on-disk framewise storage for streaming analysis
• Enhanced multi-color annotate
