====================================================
--- Version: 2.1.1 ---------------------------------

Sat 2 Jan 2021 18:15:45 CEST
====================================================

The main new features are:
*) Support for Python and R on Windows:
  a mechanism to load Biosig data into Python and R
  on the MS Windows platform. It consists of two parts:
  biosig2gdf.exe and loadgdf.{py,r}. biosig2gdf is an
  executable file that loads biosig data and converts
  it into a GDF data stream, this GDF data
  stream is then parsed by loadgdf.{py,r}.

*) biosig_vhdr_generator.sh ...
  ... is a tool to generate vhdr-header files for headerless
  binary *.dat files from a template header file.
  This can useful for data sets recorded with ktan
  and other recording systems. These header files
  can then be used to open the *.dat files with sigviewer
  and other biosig tools without additional conversion.
  The header information is provided through a
  vhdr template file.

*) some minor bug fixes.

+ SigViewer CSV Event Table: support reading

+ Identify new formats: EBNeuro, XDF

+ Bug fixes in:
  reading Embla:
     reading of multiple files was broken, now
     only one ebm file can be read. Automatic alignment
     of multiple files not supported anymore.
  reading CNT (Neuroscan):
     memory allocation problem fixed

=== Package: Biosig for Octave and Matlab ==========
--- Version: 3.4.0 ----------------------------------

Tue 21 Aug 2018 02:08:25 PM CEST
====================================================

* improvements in functions:
    detect_spikes_bursts
    roc

* remove some dependencies on NaN-toolbox in functions

* some documentation improved

* bug fixes (brainvision file format)



* mexSLOAD, mexSOPEN
  bug fix: remove undefined HDR.FILE object

* Autoconf is now used, and most configurations are done automatically
  - libtinyxml from operating system can be used
  - libcholmod is automatically used
  - enforces  -std=C99 or later
  and many more.

* Pagesize of initial read is increased from 512 to 4096 bytes

* gdf_time2tm_time:
	fix rounding issue.

* save2gdf, scp2aecg:
    anonymized processing can be controlled with command line arguments
    -a (yes) and -n (no anonymized processing)

* hdr->Patient.Name is now structured;
    it consists of  three fields, Lastname, Firstname(s), and Second lastname.
    The three fields are separated by the "unit separator" ASCII(31) or 0x1f;

    Data formats supporting structured patient names (e.g. SCP, HL7aECG,ISHNE,
    Persyst, etc, ) can make use of that structure. Other formats (e.g. GDF)
    can use the above encoding to store patient names in a structured way.

* JSON output
    reports not only PatientName but also Lastname, Firstname
    and secondLastname.

* scp2aecg, SCP->HL7aECG conversion
    - patient name is now structured in HL7
    - hospital information improved

Mon 17 Mar 2008 11:03:19 AM CET
====================================================

This is a major release:

- Support for reading additional fileformats:
    AINF, BrainVision, DEMG.

    can be written to.
  Several improvements and bug fixes are included.

Furthermore, biosig4c++ becomes more a library.
- It provides libbiosig.a with a clean
   external interface as defined in biosig.h.

This library is useful for several applications:
-  a mex-interface mexSLOAD for the use with Octave and
   Matlab is added. mexSLOAD seems somehow redundant to
   BioSig4OctMat; however mexSLOAD can read HL7aECG/FDA-XML
   data (this is not possible with BioSig4OctMat) and is
   typically much faster.
-  an interface to python is added. (this is still experimental)
-  The upcoming release of SigViewer will use it.

And finally,
- Apple platform is supported, too.
