==========================


Updates / New Features since v0.6.0

Compute Functions

  * Added minibatch kmeans based descriptor clustering function.

Descriptor Elements

    global cache.

Docker

Scripts

  * Add script to conveniently make Ball-tree hash index model given an
    existing ``hash2uuids.pickle`` model file required for the
    ``LSHNearestNeighborsIndex`` implementation.

  * ``compute_many_descriptor.py`` batch size parameter now defaulted to 0
    instead of 256.

  * Add script to cluster an index of descriptors via mini-batch kmeans
    (scikit-learn).
