title: 'infocentroid: Information-Dense Centroid Metrics'
version: 0.1.0
abstract: Traditional central tendency and dispersion measures such as the mean and
  standard deviation can be misleading for multimodal or outlier-contaminated data.
  This package implements information-theoretic alternatives that weight observations
  by their local probability density, focusing on the region containing the bulk of
  the data. The core functions include ic_weights() for kernel density or histogram
  based entropy weighting, ic_center() and ic_dispersion() for weighted location and
  spread, ic_combined() for a single information density score between zero and one,
  and ic_plot() for visualization.
