title: 'taxdiv: Taxonomic Diversity Indices Using Deng Entropy'
version: 0.1.0
identifiers:
- type: doi
  value: 10.32614/CRAN.package.taxdiv
abstract: Calculates taxonomic diversity indices for ecological community data using
  Deng entropy framework and classical approaches (Shannon, Simpson, Clarke & Warwick).
  Provides functions for computing taxonomic distinctness, average taxonomic distinctness
  (AvTD/Delta+), variation in taxonomic distinctness (VarTD/Lambda+), and Deng entropy-based
  measures that incorporate taxonomic hierarchy information. Includes tools for constructing
  taxonomic trees and computing pairwise taxonomic distances.
