GloScope 2.1.1 (2025-09-27)

• Fix so handles if no column names which was creating error with latest version of 'mclust'

GloScope 1.99.1 (2025-09-27)

• Changed default number of GMM components to 5,10,15,20

GloScope 1.99.0 (2025-09-20)

• Changed name of argument to 'gloscope' and 'gloscope_proportion' from 'dist_mat' to 'dist_metric' to be more consistent in argument names
• Changed name of function 'gloscope_proportion' to 'gloscopeProp' for consistent naming conventions
• 'gloscopeProp' now will calculated the total variation distance between cell-type proportions ('dist_metric="TV"')
• 'gloscopeProp' now will add the value 'ep' to all counts, not just those that are zero.
• Changed 'plotMDS' to be more versatile. ARGUMENTS HAVE CHANGED. Instead of 'group_id', user can now give any combination of 'color_by' and 'shape_by' to indicate variables to use for the ggplot. The function has also removed unnecessary ggplot commands, leaving those to the user to chose.
• Added function 'plotHeatmap' as a wrapper to 'pheatmap' function for plotting a heatmap of the GloScope divergence matrix
• Added functions 'getMetrics', 'bootstrap_gloscope', 'bootCI' to perform hypothesis testing and confidence intervals for testing differences between groups.
• Added function 'plotCI' to plot output of 'bootCI'

GloScope 1.7.2 (2025-09-17)

• Added functionality for custom GMM and kNN parameters in fitting
• Added aditional test cases and update documentation

GloScope 1.7.1 (2025-07-23)

• Changed default number of GMM components to 6,8,...,24

GloScope 1.3.1 (2024-08-01)

• Fixed bug which caused the 'gloscopeProp' function to not be properly exported.

GloScope 1.1.1 (2024-05-01)
