Version: [5235] PlanX GeoStats Lab 1.0.0

## [1.0.0] - 2026-08-13

- New **İzmir Functional Urban Region (FUR)** street-network /
space-syntax sample dataset (391 features, 34 real fields —
`road_density`, `betweenness_mean`, `ss_integration_median`,
`gridiron_index`, `transit_accessibility`, and more), replacing the
old population/heat-map sample. Every example workflow, the Workflow
Advisor's recipes, the Sample Dataset Guide, and the manual's own
walkthroughs were rewritten to match the new data, grounded in real
computed statistics (not assumed).
- Added **10 new advanced spatial-statistics tools**, taking the
plugin from 34 to 44 algorithms:
  - **02 | Urban Pattern Scan**: Geary's C, Join Count Statistics
(BB/WW/BW), Global Bivariate Lee's L, Geodetector Q-Statistic (spatial
stratified heterogeneity).
  - **03 | Hot Spots and Spatial Outliers**: Local Geary's C,
Colocation Quotient (CLQ), SKATER spatially constrained
regionalization (shipped as a native NumPy + Prim's-algorithm
implementation, no optional dependency required).
  - **05 | Models and Scenarios**: Lagrange Multiplier Diagnostics
(the formal SAR-vs-SEM specification test), Spatial Durbin Model
(Spatial 2SLS), Eigenvector Spatial Filtering Regression.
  - All 4 new global statistics and the local/colocation tools use
Monte Carlo permutation inference rather than closed-form variance
formulas that are easy to get subtly wrong; the Lagrange Multiplier
Diagnostics engine was independently validated against a hard
mathematical identity (LM-lag + Robust LM-error = LM-error + Robust
LM-lag) plus directional checks against known synthetic spatial-lag
and spatial-error processes.
  - Each new tool ships with a full elite-depth reference-manual entry
(Theoretical Background, Mathematical Formulation, Parameters, Output,
Interpretation Guide, Literature) and a unique algorithm icon.
- Redesigned the main plugin icon: the previous teal-gradient
rings/dots/grid motif collapsed into an unreadable smear at real QGIS
toolbar sizes (16-24px). Replaced with a bolder spatial-weights
network glyph, verified legible at 16px.
- Manual hero stats, README tool catalog, and release-gate test
thresholds updated for 44 algorithms and 300+ citations.

## [0.10.0] - 2026-08-13

- Deepened every algorithm's in-GUI help text (`shortHelpString`) with
concrete field-by-field interpretation guidance, thresholds, and
cross-tool recommendations — previously 30-150 words each, now 180-310
words.
- Added a genuine Theoretical Background section to the six Centers,
Direction and Dispersion algorithms' manual entries, grounded only in
each entry's own already-cited literature.
- Fixed broken `helpUrl()` deep links on all 34 algorithms (manual
anchor slugs never matched `name()`-derived hashes), a wrong icon on
Bivariate LISA, a manual HTML tag-balance bug, 4 mismatched
algorithm-id labels, and 1 broken DOI link.
- Added a dockable **GeoStats Lab** panel (toolbar icon + Plugins menu
entry) grouping all 34 tools by category with search and one-click
launch. The plugin is now packaged as a hybrid Processing + dock-GUI
plugin (it was Processing-only since 0.9.1).
- Added a copy-anchor-link button, 24 "See also" cross-reference
boxes, and 5 performance/complexity badges to the reference manual.
