  <dc:title>"Dirichlet Random Forest"</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package DirichletRF version 0.1.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Implementation of the Dirichlet Random Forest algorithm
    for compositional response data. Supports maximum likelihood estimation
    ('MLE') and method-of-moments ('MOM') parameter estimation for the
    Dirichlet distribution. Provides two prediction strategies; averaging-based
    predictions (average of responses within terminal nodes) and
    parameter-based predictions (expected value derived from the estimated
    Dirichlet parameters within terminal nodes). For more details see
    Masoumifard, van der Westhuizen, and Gardner-Lubbe (2026, ISBN:9781032903910).</dc:description>
