title: 'smotif: Spatial Multi-Cellular Motifs'
version: 0.2.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.smotif
abstract: Discovery and statistical evaluation of recurrent multi-cellular motifs
  (size 2, 3, and 4) in spatial omics data. Provides a lightweight 'SpatialGraph'
  representation backed by parquet, enumeration over igraph, spatially-aware null
  models, motif-to-gene association, and cross-region or cross-sample comparison.
  Designed to be framework-agnostic so that the core can be folded into Giotto Suite
  later.
