		Quantitative Taxonomy Methods of A.A. Lyubishchev (1943) //
		Implements the multivariate classification methods of Alexander
		Alexandrovich Lyubishchev (1890-1972), as described in his 1943
		manuscript 'Programma obshchey sistematiki' Lyubishchev (1943)
		https://www.zin.ru/animalia/coleoptera/rus/lyubis05.htm and
		published in Lubischew (1962)
		https://www.jstor.org/stable/2527894. Provides
		divergence_coefficient() for measuring separation between
		groups on continuous features, scatter_ellipse() for fitting
		covariance ellipses per class, transgression() for detecting
		ellipse overlap, and classify() for Bayesian posterior
		classification. These methods predate and are more general than
		the binary-character similarity coefficients of Sokal and
		Sneath (1963) that appear in other R packages.
