  <dc:title>Statistical Analysis of Ensemble Proximity Matrices</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package Proximum version 1.1.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Treats the proximity matrices produced by tree ensembles as
    first-class statistical objects rather than as model by-products.
    Provides a unified extractor across ensemble engines, in-bag and
    out-of-bag definitions, transformations to dissimilarities with metric
    diagnostics, corrections that make an indefinite proximity usable as a
    kernel, and permutation inference for comparing two proximity matrices
    or partitioning one across the terms of a design. Also provides a
    Nystrom approximation, a thresholded sparse representation and a
    streaming form that never allocates the matrix at all, for samples too
    large to hold it, measures how far the proximity
    moves between replicates of the ensemble, and draws each object
    through 'ggplot2': the seriated matrix, the configuration it implies,
    and the thresholded graph with its communities.</dc:description>
