EDIT: Apologies for the incorrect version information in the wheels below. Please update to 0.5.2.

This is a bug fix release. ITK and ANTs are updated to fix intermittent errors caused by uninitialized memory (see #579 and #583).

The apply_transforms function now uses double precision by default, to avoid lossy resampling of Allen brain atlas labels.
