Namespace Splitting and Improvements
     posted by vitenti, Sun 23 Dec 2012 12:53:57 AM UTC

The namespace of the library were split in NumCosmo and NumCosmoMath. All general purpose mathematical and statistical functions/objects are in the NumCosmoMath (Ncm) namespace and all cosmological functions/objects in NumCosmo (Nc).

The make command "make check" now works in every tested system (i586 x86_64) and (Arch Linux, openSUSE [...]

WMAP9
     posted by pennalima, Fri 21 Dec 2012 06:24:04 PM UTC

Distance posteriors from WMAP9 data were implemented. For details see http://arxiv.org/abs/1212.5226 (table 11).

New example: Confidence regions.
     posted by vitenti, Thu 13 Dec 2012 01:55:11 PM UTC

Added a new example to the homepage: ( http://www.nongnu.org/numcosmo/#ExampleRGSNIABaoPython ).
In this example we show how to calculate the confidence region of two parameters using the Likelihood Ratio object ( http://www.nongnu.org/numcosmo/manual/NcmLHRatio2d.html ), using both the likelihood ratio test and the Fisher matrix.

New Data type: Supernova Ia with covariance
     posted by vitenti, Tue 11 Dec 2012 07:10:12 PM UTC

Added support to Supernova Ia with non diagonal covariance matrices to the library. In this new model the phenomenological parameters alpha, beta, sigma_int, etc can be analyzed together with the cosmological parameters. This allows analysis similar to what is done, for example, in Conley 2011 ( http://arxiv.org/abs/1104.1443 ). [...]

New version 0.9.0
     posted by vitenti, Mon 03 Dec 2012 07:12:58 PM UTC

Several objects translated to Object framework:

  - NcmData          - Base data object
  - NcmDataset       - Dataset object
  - NcmDataGauss     - Gaussian data -- Inverse covariance matrix
  - NcmDataGaussDiag - Gaussian data -- Diagonal covariance [...]

New example manuals and NcRecomb object.
     posted by vitenti, Tue 13 Nov 2012 07:09:51 PM UTC

- Reworked NcRecomb in GObject framework and added an example in python.
- Added GObject doctool experimental documentation to the project homepage.
- Added the new recombination example to the homepage.

WMAP7
     posted by pennalima, Thu 08 Nov 2012 04:47:13 PM UTC

Shift parameter and distance priors from WMAP7 data were implemented. For details see http://arxiv.org/abs/1001.4538 (tables 9 and 10).

Working example in Python
     posted by vitenti, Fri 02 Nov 2012 06:56:16 PM UTC

Example of the library usage through GObject introspection + PyGObject. See http://www.nongnu.org/numcosmo/#Examples .

New homepage
