bssm 2.0.1 (Release date: 2022-05-02)
==============
   * Fixed weights to one in case of non-linear model with mcmc_type="approx".
   * Adjusted tolerance of some testthat tests to comply with CRAN's MKL checks.

bssm 2.0.0 (Release date: 2021-11-26)
==============
   * Added a progress bar for run_mcmc.
   * Added a fitted method for extraction of summary statistics of posterior
     predictive distribution p(y_t | y_1, ..., y_n) for t = 1, ..., n.
   * Rewrote the summary method completely, which now returns data.frame. This
     also resulted in some changes in order of the function arguments.
   * The output of predict method is now a data frame with column weight
     corresponding to the IS-weights in case of IS-MCMC. Previously resampling
     was done internally, but now this is left for the user if needed
     (i.e. for drawing state trajectories).
   * The asymptotic_var and iact functions are now exported to users, and they
     also contain alternative methods based on the posterior package.
   * New function estimate_ess can be used to compute effective sample size
     from weighted MCMC.
   * Added compatibility with the posterior package by defining as_draws
     method for converting run_mcmc output to draws_df object.
   * New function check_diagnostics for quick glance of ESS and Rhat values.
   * Large number of new tests, and improved documentation with added examples.
   * Large number of internal tweaks so that the package complies with
     goodpractices package and Ropensci statistical software standards.

     multivariate time series case.
   * Fixed log-likelihood computation for gamma model with non-constant shape
     parameter when using (intermediate) Gaussian approximation.
   * Fixed sampling of negative binomial distribution in predict method, which
     used std::negative_binomial which converts non-integer phi to integer.
     Sampling now uses Gamma-Poisson mixture for simulation.


bssm 1.1.5 (Release date: 2021-06-14)

     unknown reason.

     support.
   * Added pandoc version >= 1.12.3 to system requirements.

     burn-in by default.

   * Renamed `nsim` argument to `particles` in most of the R functions (`nsim`
     also works with a warning).

  * Fixed a bug in summary.mcmc_run which resulted error when
    trying to obtain summary for states only.
  * Added a check for Kalman filter for a degenerate case where all
    observational level and state level variances are zero.

  * Added a vignette regarding psi-APF for non-linear models.

bssm 1.0.0 (Release date: 2020-06-09)

    C++ snippets).

    Karppinen for spotting the bug.

    methods for SDE and ng_ar1 models.

bssm 0.1.4 (Release date: 2018-02-04)

    joint posterior samples, run_mcmc can now return only marginal samples of
    theta, or summary statistics of the states.
  * Due to the above change, argument `sim_states` was removed from the
    Gaussian MCMC methods.
  * MCMC functions are now less memory intensive, especially with
    `type="theta"`.


bssm 0.1.3 (Release date: 2018-01-07)

    method, instead of having separate arguments for delayed acceptance and IS
    schemes.
  * summary method for MCMC output now omits the computation of SE and ESS in
    order to speed up the function.
  * Added new model class lgg_ssm, which is a linear-Gaussian model defined
    directly via C++ like non-linear ssm_nlg models. This allows more flexible
    prior definitions and complex system matrix constructions.

    state dynamics defined as SDE. These too are defined via couple
    simple C++ functions.
  * Added non-gaussian AR(1) model class.

    MCMC iteration.
