JavaPermutationTools, v4.1.0

[4.1.0] - 2022-08-03

Added

• PermutationFullUnaryOperator and PermutationFullBinaryOperator functional interfaces for the purpose of specifying custom operations on Permutation objects. These are variations of the existing PermutationUnaryOperator and PermutationBinaryOperator interfaces that were added in 3.2.0, but with both the raw int arrays and Permutation objects passed to the operators.
• Permutation.apply methods, one for each of the two new PermutationFullUnaryOperator and PermutationFullBinaryOperator interfaces, for applying such custom Permutation operators.

Dependencies

• Bump core from 2.1.0 to 2.2.2.
• Bump rho-mu from 2.3.0 to 2.3.2.

Added

• Support for all Java 17 random number generators in generating random Permutation objects.

Changed

• Minimum supported Java version is now Java 17 (breaking change).
• Utilized Java 17 RandomGenerator interface to eliminate redundant code.

Removed

• Permutation.Mechanic nested class previously deprecated in v3.2.0 (breaking change).

Dependencies

• Bumped core from 1.1.0 to 2.1.0 (breaking change).
• Bumped rho-mu from 1.2.0 to 2.3.0 (breaking change).

JavaPermutationTools, v3.3.0

Added

• CycleDistance: implementation of cycle distance described in https://doi.org/10.3390/app12115506
• CycleEditDistance: implementation of cycle edit distance described in https://doi.org/10.3390/app12115506
• KCycleDistance: implementation of k-cycle distance described in https://doi.org/10.3390/app12115506

Fixed

JavaPermutationTools, v3.2.0

[3.2.0] - 2022-03-17

Added

• PermutationUnaryOperator and PermutationBinaryOperator functional interfaces for the purpose
  of specifying custom operations on Permutation objects.
• Permutation.apply methods, one for each of the two new PermutationUnaryOperator
  and PermutationBinaryOperator interfaces, for applying such custom Permutation operators.

Changed

• Various improvements to the documentation.

Deprecated

• The Permutation.Mechanic nested class, which will be removed in the next
  major release 4.0.0. The new Permutation.apply methods should be used instead.

JavaPermutationTools, v3.1.1

[3.1.1] - 2022-02-17

Fixed

• Fixed inefficient memory usage in KendallTauDistance (issue #183)
• Fixed inefficient memory usage in KendallTauSequenceDistance (issue #184)
• Fixed inefficient memory usage in WeightedKendallTauDistance (issue #185)
• Fixed inefficiency in WeightedKendallTauDistance related to redundant computation (issue #182)

JavaPermutationTools, v3.1.0

[3.1.0] - 2022-02-15

Added

• WeightedKendallTauDistance: an implementation of a weighted version of Kendall tau distance

Changed

• Bumped dependency rho-mu to 1.2.0
• Bumped dependency org.cicirello.core to 1.1.0
• Migrated test cases to JUnit 5 (specifically JUnit Jupiter 5.8.2).

CI/CD

• Automated commenting of test coverage percentages on pull requests.
• Revised documentation workflow to deploy to API doc updates to website only
  on releases to ensure consistent with latest library release.

Other

• Various updates to project website.

JavaPermutationTools, v3.0.0

[3.0.0] - 2021-09-24

Changed

• Minimum supported Java version is now Java 11+.
• The library now uses Java modules, providing the
  module org.cicirello.jpt, which includes the
  existing packages org.cicirello.permutations and
  org.cicirello.sequences, as well as their
  subpackages.
• The randomization and other math utilities, previously
  contained in the package org.cicirello.math and its
  subpackages have been moved to a new library
  ρμ, within a module
  org.cicirello.rho_mu. That module is now a dependency
  of jpt, declared with a requires transitive to ease the
  transition for existing users of JPT (they should only
  need a requires org.cicirello.jpt to get access to
  that functionality as well).
• Similar to the above, the package org.cicirello.util
  has been moved out of JPT to a new library
  org.cicirello.core, within
  a module org.cicirello.core. The package name of
  org.cicirello.util has been kept. This new module is
  now a dependency of JPT. And just as in the case with the
  math and randomization utilities, JPT declares the module
  requires with requires transitive to ease the transition
  of existing users.
• We will now also publish a jar-with-dependencies for those
  users of the library who do not use a dependency manager. This
  fat jar contains the library and all dependencies. This fat
  jar is not modularized (unlike the regular jar), as Java
  only allows a single module per jar. However, it is still
  built for a Java 11 target.
