Changes in version 1.0 (2022-01-25) - Adds references to the manuscript published in the Journal of Statistical Software. Changes in version 0.6 - Adds symmetric family for equality constraints of the potentials array. Changes in version 0.5.1 - Added vec_description() function to explicitly describe what relative positions and interactions are associated with each element of the summarized vector of parameters/sufficient statistics in each parameter restriction family. Changes in version 0.5 (2020-10-29) - rpositions() can now be used as an alternative to create mrfi objects based on explicitly described relative positions with a simpler syntax than mrfi(). - Added a vignette on analyzing 3d data via 2d projections in mrf2d. - Fixed bug that caused the R session to crash when calling smr_stat() with incomplete lattices. Changes in version 0.4.1 (2020-10-20) - Added rmrf2d_mc to simplify the use of Monte-Carlo methods from randomly generated fields. - Minor documentation updates. Changes in version 0.4 - Added mrfout and hmrfout classes for model fitting functions output. A summary() and plot() methods are also available. - Simplified structure of documentation files. Changes in version 0.3 (2020-06-02) - Co-ocurrence histogram computing is now exported in the cohist() function. - Computing of conditional probabilities for individual positions are now exported in the cp_mrf2d() function. - All the conversions from/to arrays to/from vectors are now available. See the help file for smr_stat. - Additional example data included in field1 and hfield1. - Documentation improved, including paper available in: https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.00383
