Run the same analysis over a range of arbitrary data processing 
    decisions. 'multitool' provides an interface for creating alternative 
    analysis pipelines and turning them into a grid of all possible pipelines. 
    Using this grid as a blueprint, you can model your data across all possible 
    pipelines and summarize the results.

Implements analytical methods for multidimensional plant traits, including Competitors-Stress tolerators-Ruderals strategy analysis using leaf traits, Leaf-Height-Seed strategy analysis, Niche Periodicity Table analysis, and Trait Network analysis. Provides functions for data analysis, visualization, and network metrics calculation. Methods are based on Grime (1974) <doi:10.1038/250026a0>, Pierce et al. (2017) <doi:10.1111/1365-2435.12882>, Westoby (1998) <doi:10.1023/A:1004327224729>, Winemiller et al. (2015) <doi:10.1111/ele.12462>, He et al. (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.tree.2020.06.003>.

Provides utility functions for multivariate analysis (factor analysis, discriminant analysis, and others). The package is primary written for the course Multivariate analysis and for the course Computer intensive methods at the masters program of Applied Statistics at University of Ljubljana.

Distance multivariance is a measure of dependence which can be used to detect 
    and quantify dependence of arbitrarily many random vectors. The necessary functions are
    implemented in this packages and examples are given. It includes: distance multivariance, 
    distance multicorrelation, dependence structure detection, tests of independence and
    copula versions of distance multivariance based on the Monte Carlo empirical transform.
    Detailed references are given in the package description, as starting point for the 
    theoretic background we refer to:
