Description: Provides functions for the flexible integration of
        heterogeneous scRNA-seq datasets across multiple tissue types,
        platforms, and experimental batches. Implements the method
        described in Ming (2022) <doi:10.1093/bib/bbac167>. The package
        incorporates modified 'C++' source code from the 'flashpca'
        library (Abraham, 2014-2016
        <https://github.com/gabraham/flashpca>) for efficient principal
        component analysis, and the 'Spectra' library (Qiu, 2016-2025)
        for large-scale eigenvalue and singular value decomposition;
        see 'inst/COPYRIGHTS' for details on third-party code.
