The algorithm assigns rareness/ outlierness score to every sample in voluminous datasets.
    The algorithm makes multiple estimations of the proximity between a pair of samples, in low-dimensional spaces. To compute proximity, FiRE uses Sketching, a variant of locality sensitive hashing.

Fire behavior prediction models, including the Scott & Reinhardt's (2001) Rothermel Wildland Fire Modelling System <DOI:10.2737/RMRS-RP-29> and Alexander et al.'s (2006) Crown Fire Initiation & Spread model <DOI:10.1016/j.foreco.2006.08.174>. Also contains sample datasets, estimation of fire behavior prediction model inputs (e.g., fuel moisture, canopy characteristics, wind adjustment factor), results visualization, and methods to estimate fire weather hazard.

A model-independent factor importance ranking and selection procedure that is based on total Sobol' indices. Please see Huang and Joseph (2024) <arXiv:2401.00800>. This research is supported by U.S. National Science Foundation grants DMS-2310637 and DMREF-1921873.

Proposes non-parametric estimates of the Fisher information measure and the 
              Shannon entropy power. More theoretical and implementation details can be found
              in Guignard et al. <doi:10.3389/feart.2020.00255>. A 'python' version of this
              work is available on 'github' and 'PyPi' ('FiShPy').

Provides raw and curated data on the codes,
    classification and conservation status of freshwater fishes in British
    Columbia. Marine fishes will be added in a future release.
