Description: SPICEY (SPecificity Index for Coding and Epigenetic
        activitY) is an R package designed to quantify cell-type
        specificity in single-cell transcriptomic and epigenomic data,
        particularly scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq. It introduces two
        complementary indices: the Gene Expression Tissue Specificity
        Index (GETSI) and the Regulatory Element Tissue Specificity
        Index (RETSI), both based on entropy to provide continuous,
        interpretable measures of specificity. By integrating gene
        expression and chromatin accessibility, SPICEY enables
        standardized analysis of cell-type-specific regulatory programs
        across diverse tissues and conditions.
