JavaPermutationTools, v4.3.0

[4.3.0] - 2022-10-17

Added

• EditDistanceDouble: extracted from EditDistance (for sequences) all of the distancef methods for
  double-valued distances. The original EditDistance now subclasses this one to retain existing functionality.
• Extracted the following classes from SequenceSampler that implement different algorithms for efficiently
  randomly sampling array elements without replacement:
  • SequencePoolSampler: the pool sampling algorithm of Ernvall and Nevalainen (1982),
  • SequenceReservoirSampler: the reservoir sampling algorithm of Vitter (1985),
  • SequenceInsertionSampler: the insertion sampling algorithm of Cicirello (2022), and
  • SequenceCompositeSampler: the composite of the above three of Cicirello (2022).

Changed

• Refactored the following classes to reduce cyclomatic complexity, or for other maintainability reasons:
  • SequenceSampler
  • ExactMatchDistance (for sequences)
  • KendallTauSequenceDistance
  • EditDistance (for sequences)

Deprecated

• The SequenceSampler.sampleReservoir methods, which are now replaced by the SequenceReservoirSampler class.
• The SequenceSampler.samplePool methods, which are now replaced by the SequencePoolSampler class.
• The SequenceSampler.sampleInsertion methods, which are now replaced by the SequenceInsertionSampler class.

Dependencies

• Bump rho-mu from 2.4.1 to 2.5.0
• Bump core from 2.2.2 to 2.4.0
