Release v0.4.0 (October 2017) · ContextLab/hypertools

Enhancements -

A new class: DataGeometry with methods for plotting, transforming new data and saving
Support for loading *.geo objects
A new function: analyze to perform combinations of transformations
A new function: describe for characterizing the loss of information due to dimensionality reduction algs
In-memory caching of time-intensive reduce, align and describe operations
New syntax for reduce function: model and model_params are now passed as a dictionary using the reduce arg
New clustering models added to the cluster function: MiniBatchKMeans, AgglomerativeClustering, Birch, FeatureAgglomeration, and SpectralClustering
Moved major functions (normalize, align, reduce, cluster, load) to main level (i.e. hyp.load instead of hyp.tools.load, but the latter will still work)

Deprecations -

A deprecation warning is thrown for the following align arguments: normalize, ndims, and method
A deprecation warning is thrown for the following reduce arguments: model, model_params, align, and normalize
A deprecation warning is thrown for the following cluster arguments: ndims
A deprecation warning is thrown for the describe_pca function (replaced by describe)

Bugs -

fixed #148 bug in hyp.plot where figure would be rendered despite setting show=False (thanks @chaseWilliams !)
fixed a bug where n_clusters would not override group, even though a warning message said it would
fixed a bug where hyp.plot would quit if any kwargs were not the same length as the number of arrays in the list of input data.
