  - Added JSS reference.

                 Changes in version 1.3.4 (2020-08-24)                  

  - Functions pwd() and swd() now return a list with the following
    components: s, the samples stored in a matrix nrepl * n, and
    iterations, the number of iterations run by the algorithm.
  - Functions stprod() and stsum() now return a list with the following
    components: mat, the standardized matrix, iterations, the number of
    iterations run by the algorithm, and conv, the convergence reached
    by the algorithm.

Usage

  - In the functions pwd(), swd() and hpwd() changed the name of the
    parameter nsamp in n.

Under the hood

  - In the functions pwd() and swd() introduced stopping criterion.

                 Changes in version 1.3.1 (2019-12-16)                  

Usage

  - In the functions pwd(), swd() and hpwd() changed the name of the
    parameter bexp in beta.

    check.

                 Changes in version 1.3.0 (2019-08-04)                  

New features

  - In the functions pwd() and hpwd() a new parameter called bexp has
    been introduced, which regulates the amount of spread of the
    samples. Default value set to 10.
  - In the function swd() the parameter bexp is now set to double and
    with default equal to 10.

Minor improvements

  - Minor improvements of guides:
      - some updates to the examples;
      - removed some non-ASCII characters;
      - inserted links to reference websites.

                 Changes in version 1.2.0 (2019-03-12)                  

  - Changed output of functions pwd(), swd() and hpwd() from a matrix of
    dimension (nsamp * nrepl) * 2 to a matrix of dimension nrepl *
    nsamp.
  - Removed Rdpack from Imports.
  - Minor improvements of guides.
  - Changed name of file heurprod.cpp to hpwd.cpp

                 Changes in version 1.1.0 (2019-01-21)                  

New features

  - Added a new function sbi() for compute the spatial index of a
    sample, implemented in C++ through the Armadillo library, using Rcpp
    and RcppArmadillo.
  - In the functions pwd() and swd() the parameter nrepl is now set to
    default at 1.
  - In the functions pwd() and swd() the parameter niter is now set to
    default at 10.
  - In the functions stprod() and stsum() the parameter differ is now
    set to default at 1e-15.
  - In the functions stprod() and stsum() the parameter niter is now set
    to default at 1000.
  - In the functions stprod() and stsum() there is no print for each
    convergence step anymore.

Improvements under the hood

  - The functions pwd() and swd() now take advantages of the Armadillo
    library.
  - The function stprod() is now implemented in C++ through the
    Armadillo library, using Rcpp and RcppArmadillo.
  - The function stsum() is now implemented in C++ through the Armadillo
    library, using Rcpp and RcppArmadillo.
  - The function hpwd() is now implemented in C++ through the Armadillo
    library, using Rcpp and RcppArmadillo.
  - In all the functions there are now checks about the correct inputs.

Minor improvements

  - Correction of some typos along the guides.

Miscellaneous
