This new release includes major upgrades and additional features. Major evolution includes :
C++ computation of diversity metrics for improved computational efficiency of α- and β-diversity metrics
additional set of diversity metrics:
α-diversity metrics now include spectral richness, Shannon index, Simpson index, and Hill index with Hill order to be defined by user
β-diversity metrics now include Bray-Curtis dissimilarity, Bray-Curtis turnover, Jaccard dissimilarity, Jaccard turnover, Simpson dissimilarity and Sorensen dissimilarity.
Functional diversity metrics include Functional Richness, Functional Evenness, Functional Divergence, Functional Dispersion and Rao entropy.
