- Update to version 2.1.0.
* New Features:
+ Support for CUDA based dense solvers - DENSE_QR,
DENSE_NORMAL_CHOLESKY & DENSE_SCHUR (Joydeep Biswas,
Sameer Agarwal)
+ Manifold is the new LocalParameterization. Version 2.1 is
the transition release where users can use both
LocalParameterization as well as Manifold objects as they
transition from the former to the latter.
LocalParameterization will be removed in version 2.2.
There should be no numerical change to the results as a
result of this change. (Sameer Agarwal, Johannes Beck,
Sergiu Deitsch)
+ A number of changes to Jet s (Sergiu Deitsch):
- Jet gained support for, copysign, fma (fused multiply-add),
midpoint (C++20 and above), lerp (C++20 and above),
3-argument hypot (C++17 and above), log10, log1p, exp1m,
norm (squared norm).
- Quiet floating-point comparison: isless, isgreater,
islessgreater, islessequal, isgreaterequal, isunordered,
signbit, fdim
- Categorization and comparison operations are applied
exclusively and consistently to the scalar part of a
Jet now: isnan, isinf, isnormal, isfinite, fpclassify
(new), fmin, fmax
- It is now possible to safely compare a Jet against a
scalar (or literal) without constructing a Jet first
(even if it’s nested)
This enables interaction with various arithmetic functions
that expect a scalar like instance, such as
boost::math::pow<-N> for reciprocal computation.
+ Add NumericDiffFirstOrderFunction (Sameer Agarwal)
* Backward Incompatible API Changes:
+ LocalParameterization is deprecated. It will be removed
in version 2.2. Use Manifold instead.
+ Classification functions like IsFinite are deprecated.
Use the C++11 functions (isfinite, isnan etc) going
forward. However to maintain consistent behaviour with
comparison operators, these functions only inspect the
scalar part of the Jet.
