  <dc:title>Spatially Variable Genes Detection Methods for Spatial
Transcriptomics</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package SVG version 1.0.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>A unified framework for detecting spatially variable genes (SVGs) 
    in spatial transcriptomics data. This package integrates multiple 
    state-of-the-art SVG detection methods including 'MERINGUE' (Moran's I based 
    spatial autocorrelation), 'Giotto' binSpect (binary spatial enrichment test), 
    'SPARK-X' (non-parametric kernel-based test), and 'nnSVG' (nearest-neighbor 
    Gaussian processes). Each method is implemented with optimized performance 
    through vectorization, parallelization, and 'C++' acceleration where applicable.
    Methods are described in Miller et al. (2021) &lt;doi:10.1101/gr.271288.120&gt;,
