# biglasso 1.5.2
  * Update coercion for compatibility with Matrix 1.5
  * Now using GitHub Actions instead of Travis for CI

# biglasso 1.5.1
  * Internal Cpp changes: initialize Xty, remove unused cutoff variable (#48)
  * Eliminate CV test against ncvreg (the two packages no longer use the same approach (#47)

# biglasso 1.5.0
  * Update headers to maintain compatibility with new version of Rcpp (#40)

# biglasso 1.4-1
  * changed R package maintainer to Chuyi Wang (wwaa0208@gmail.com)
  * fixed bugs
  * Add 'auc', 'class' options to cv.biglasso eval.metric
  * predict.cv now predicts standard error over CV folds by default; set 'grouped' argument to FALSE for old behaviour.
  * predict.cv.biglasso accepts 'lambda.min', 'lambda.1se' argument, similar to predict.cv.glmnet()

# biglasso 1.4-0
  * adaptive screening methods were implemented and set as default when applicable
  * added sparse Cox regression
  *  removed uncompetitive screening methods and combined naming of screening methods
  *  version 1.4-0 for CRAN submission

# biglasso 1.3-7
  * update email to personal email
  * coef(cvfit) returns only nonzero cells, as a labelled vector
  * set HSR rules as default
  * option for non-standardization

# biglasso 1.3-6
  * optimized the code for computing the slores rule.
  * added Slores screening without active cycling (-NAC) for logistic regression, research usage only.
  * corrected BEDPP for elastic net.
  * fixed a bug related to "exporting SSR-BEDPP".

# biglasso 1.3-5
  * redocumented using Roxygen2.
  * registered native routines for faster and more stable performance.

# biglasso 1.3-4
  * fixed a bug related to `dfmax` option. (thanks you Florian Privé!)

# biglasso 1.3-3
  * fixed bugs related to KKT checking for elastic net. (thanks you Florian Privé!)
  * added references for screening rules and the technical paper of biglasso package.

# biglasso 1.3-2
  * added screening methods without active cycling (-NAC) for comparison, research usage only.
  * fixed a bug related to numeric comparison in Dome test.

# biglasso 1.3-1
  * fixed bug in SSR-Slores related to numeric equality comparison.

# biglasso 1.3-0
  * version 1.3-0 for CRAN submission.
  
# biglasso 1.2-6
  * added a newly proposed screening rule, SSR-Slores, for lasso-penalized logistic regression.
  * added SSR-BEDPP for elastic-net-penalized linear regression.

# biglasso 1.2-5
  *  updated README.md with benchmarking results.
  *  added tutorial (vignette).

# biglasso 1.2-4
  *  added gaussian.cpp: solve lasso without screening, for research only.
  *  added tests.

# biglasso 1.2-3
  *  changed convergence criteria of logistic regression to be the same as that in glmnet.
  *  optimized source code; preparing for CRAN submission.
  *  fixed memory leaks occurred on Windows.

# biglasso 1.2-2
  * added internal data set: the colon cancer data.

# biglasso 1.2-1
  * Implemented another new screening rule (SSR-BEDPP), also combining hybrid strong rule 
with a safe rule (BEDPP).
  * implemented EDPP rule with active set cycling strategy for linear regression.
  *  changed convergence criteria to be the same as that in glmnet.

# biglasso 1.1-2
  * fixed bugs occurred when some features have identical values for different 
observations. These features are internally removed from model fitting.

# biglasso 1.1-1
  * Three sparse screening rules (SSR, EDPP, SSR-Dome) were implemented. Our 
new proposed HSR-Dome combines HSR and Dome test for feature screening,
leading to even better performance as compared to 'glmnet'.	
  * OpenMP parallel computing was added to speedup single model fitting.
  * Both exact Newton and majorization-minimization (MM) algorithm for logistic regression
were implemented. The latter could be faster, especially in data-larger-than-RAM cases.
  * Source code were rewritten in pure cpp.
  * Sparse matrix representation was added using Armadillo library.

# biglasso 1.0-1
  * package ready for CRAN submission.
