Description: Implementation of the Partitioned Local Depth (PaLD)
        approach which provides a measure of local depth and the
        cohesion of a point to another which (together with a universal
        threshold for distinguishing strong and weak ties) may be used
        to reveal local and global structure in data, based on methods
        described in Berenhaut, Moore, and Melvin (2022)
        <doi:10.1073/pnas.2003634119>. No extraneous inputs,
        distributional assumptions, iterative procedures nor
        optimization criteria are employed. This package includes
        functions for computing local depths and cohesion as well as
        flexible functions for plotting community networks and displays
        of cohesion against distance.
