		Tree-Spatial Scan Statistic for Cluster Detection // Implements
		the tree-spatial scan statistic for detecting clusters that
		combine both spatial and hierarchical structures, as proposed
		by Cancado et al. (2025) doi:10.1007/s10651-025-00670-w. The
		method extends Kulldorff (1997) doi:10.1080/03610929708831995
		circular spatial scan statistic and the tree-based scan
		statistic of Kulldorff et al. (2003)
		doi:10.1111/1541-0420.00039 by searching for anomalies in both
		geographic regions and branches of hierarchical trees
		simultaneously. The package also provides standalone
		implementations of Kulldorff's circular spatial scan statistic
		and the tree-based scan statistic. Statistical significance is
		assessed via Monte Carlo simulation under a Poisson or binomial
		model, with optional 'OpenMP' parallelization.
