Description: The goal of `tpSVG` is to detect and visualize spatial
        variation in the gene expression for spatially resolved
        transcriptomics data analysis. Specifically, `tpSVG` introduces
        a family of count-based models, with generalizable parametric
        assumptions such as Poisson distribution or negative binomial
        distribution. In addition, comparing to currently available
        count-based model for spatially resolved data analysis, the
        `tpSVG` models improves computational time, and hence greatly
        improves the applicability of count-based models in SRT data
        analysis.
