Provides methods for allocating entries to clusters/groups based on group sizes, group-wise distance-based diversity metrics, and group-wise diversity index estimates. Includes procedures for selecting entries within clusters/groups through random sampling, genetic distance-based approaches, and optimized diversity metric–based selection methods. See the package documentation for more, including full list of references for the methods implemented.
