title: 'CrcBiomeScreen: An R package for colorectal cancer screening and microbiome
  analysis'
version: 1.1.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.CrcBiomeScreen
abstract: A developed and benchmarked reproducible machine learning framework for
  microbiome-based colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. By systematically evaluating
  normalization strategies, taxonomic resolutions, and class imbalance handling. This
  R package allows users to apply the full pipeline or selectively run specific components
  depending on their analytical needs. It establishes a scalable foundation for developing
  interpretable microbiome-based screening tools to support early CRC detection. This
  approach could be easily implemented in a national screening programme, to improve
  early detection rates for this disease.
