    o   speedup MCD/ACD/HPC method by paralleling code of objective
	function / gradient computation using OpenMP.

                 Changes in version 0.2.4 (2021-01-12)                  

USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o   improve readability of the code.

    o   add some useful comments.

    o   speedup MCD/ACD/HPC method (GH #2, @Neutron3529).

                 Changes in version 0.2.3 (2021-01-06)                  

BUG FIXES

    o   fix the warning on order() suggested by Kurt Hornik.

    o   remove lattice from Imports.

    o   fix a bug on model order (GH #1).

USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o   speedup HPC method (GH #2, @Neutron3529).

                 Changes in version 0.2.2 (2020-07-28)                  

BUG FIXES

    o   fix function bootcurve(): argument optim.method was missing to
	call function optimizeJmcm(), and now it is set to 'default'.

                 Changes in version 0.2.1 (2018-11-10)                  

USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o   add the JSS paper as vignette in package jmcm.

                 Changes in version 0.2.0 (2018-11-04)                  

USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o   add option optim.method in function jmcm(): by default,
	optim.method is 'default' so that the BFGS algorithm we
	implemented internally is used; alternatively, we can set
	optim.method as 'BFGS' so that vmmin() (the underlying C
	function used in stats::optim() for BFGS algorithm) will be
	called through R package roptim.

NEW FEATURES

    o   class JmcmBase is implemented as the base class for class MCD,
	ACD and HPC to reduce code duplication.

    o   class JmcmFit is used for fitting of the three Cholesky-based
	joint mean-covariance models (i.e., MCD, ACD and HPC).
