Description: A unified framework for detecting spatially variable genes
        (SVGs) in spatial transcriptomics data. This package integrates
        multiple state-of-the-art SVG detection methods including
        'MERINGUE' (Moran's I based spatial autocorrelation), 'Giotto'
        binSpect (binary spatial enrichment test), 'SPARK-X'
        (non-parametric kernel-based test), and 'nnSVG'
        (nearest-neighbor Gaussian processes). Each method is
        implemented with optimized performance through vectorization,
        parallelization, and 'C++' acceleration where applicable.
        Methods are described in Miller et al. (2021)
