Releases

• 0.20080624.1 (Tue, 24 Jun 2008)
  • Converted all documentation (including docstrings) into the restructured text format.
  • Improved Makefile.
  • Included configuration and Makefile support for profiling, API doc generation (via epydoc) and code quality checks (with PyLint).
  • Consistently import NumPy as N.
  • Bugfix: Proper handling of [qs]form codes, which previously have not been handled at all. Thanks to Christopher Burns for pointing it out.
  • Bugfix: Make NiftiFormat work without setFilename(). Thanks to Benjamin Thyreau for reporting.
  • Bugfix: setPixDims() stored meaningless values.
  • Use new NumPy API and replace deprecated function calls (PyArray_FromDimsAndData).
  • Initial support for memory mapped access to uncompressed NIfTI files (MemMappedNiftiImage).
  • Add a proper Makefile and setup.cfg for compiling PyNIfTI under Windows with MinGW.
  • Include a minimal copy of the most recent nifticlibs (just libniftiio and znzlib; version 1.0), to lower the threshold to build PyNIfTI on systems that do not provide a developer package for those libraries.
• 0.20070930.1 (Sun, 30 Sep 2007)
  • Relicense under the MIT license, to be compatible with SciPy license. http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php
  • Updated documentation.
• 0.20070917.1 (Mon, 17 Sep 2007)
  • Bugfix: Can now update NIfTI header data when no filename is set (Closes: #442175).
  • Unloading of image data without a filename set is no checked and prevented as it would damage data integrity and the image data could not be recovered.
  • Added 'pixdim' property (Yaroslav Halchenko).
• 0.20070905.1 (Wed, 5 Sep 2007)
  • Fixed a bug in the qform/quaternion handling that caused changes to the qform to vanish when saving to file (Yaroslav Halchenko).
  • Added more unit tests.
  • 'dim' vector in the NIfTI header is now guaranteed to only contain non-zero elements. This caused problems with some applications.
• 0.20070803.1 (Fri, 3 Aug 2007)
  • Does not depend on SciPy anymore.
  • Initial steps towards a unittest suite.
  • pynifti_pst can now print the peristimulus signal matrix for a single voxel (onsets x time) for easier processing of this information in external applications.
  • utils.getPeristimulusTimeseries() can now be used to compute mean and variance of the signal (among others).
  • pynifti_pst is able to compute more than just the mean peristimulus timeseries (e.g. variance and standard deviation).
  • Set default image description when saving a file if none is present.
  • Improved documentation.
• 0.20070425.1 (Wed, 25 Apr 2007)
  • Improved documentation. Added note about the special usage of the header property. Also added notes about the relevant properties in the docstring of the corresponding accessor methods.
  • Added property and accessor methods to access/modify the repetition time of timeseries (dt).
  • Added functions to manipulate the pixdim values.
  • Added utils.py with some utility functions.
  • Added functions/property to determine the bounding box of an image.
  • Fixed a bug that caused a corrupted sform matrix when converting a NumPy array and a header dictionary into a NIfTI image.
  • Added script to compute peristimulus timeseries (pynifti_pst).
  • Package now depends on python-scipy.
• 0.20070315.1 (Thu, 15 Mar 2007)
  • Removed functionality for "NiftiImage.save() raises an IOError exception when writing the image file fails." (Yaroslav Halchenko)
  • Added ability to force a filetype when setting the filename or saving a file.
  • Reverse the order of the 'header' and 'load' argument in the NiftiImage constructor. 'header' is now first as it seems to be used more often.
  • Improved the source code documentation.
  • Added getScaledData() method to NiftiImage that returns a copy of the data array that is scaled with the slope and intercept stored in the NIfTI header.
• 0.20070301.2 (Thu, 1 Mar 2007)
  • Fixed wrong link to the source tarball in README.html.
• 0.20070301.1 (Thu, 1 Mar 2007)
  • Initial upload to the Debian archive. (Closes: #413049)
  • NiftiImage.save() raises an IOError exception when writing the image file fails.
  • Added extent, volextent, and timepoints properties to NiftiImage class (Yaroslav Halchenko).
• 0.20070220.1 (Tue, 20 Feb 2007)
  • NiftiFile class is renamed to NiftiImage.
  • SWIG-wrapped libniftiio functions are no available in the nifticlib module.
  • Fixed broken NiftiImage from Numpy array constructor.
  • Added initial documentation in README.html.
  • Fulfilled a number of Yarik's wishes ;)
• 0.20070214.1 (Wed, 14 Feb 2007)
  • Does not depend on libfslio anymore.
  • Up to seven-dimensional dataset are supported (as much as NIfTI can do).
  • The complete NIfTI header dataset is modifiable.
  • Most image properties are accessable via class attributes and accessor methods.
  • Improved documentation (but still a long way to go).
• 0.20061114 (Tue, 14 Nov 2006)
  • Initial release.
