v0.9.1

This minor version only includes the Ikomia domain change: ikomia.com -> ikomia.ai

v0.9.0

This release introduces many break changes as we change the naming convention of the Python bindings from the C++ core. The complete API is now in Snake Case style for all functions, there is no more difference between pure Python and C++ API. These changes may occur during the consolidation period of the API marked by the 0.x.x versions.
