title: 'darwin: Multi-Objective Gene Selection Using Evolutionary Algorithms'
version: 1.0.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.darwin
abstract: Automatic gene selection for bulk RNA-seq deconvolution using multi-objective
  optimization. Implements the NSGA-II algorithm to simultaneously minimize correlation
  and maximize distance between cell type expression profiles, yielding Pareto-optimal
  gene subsets. Supports Seurat objects (V4 and V5), SingleCellExperiment, and standard
  matrix inputs. Includes built-in deconvolution methods and parallel computing support.
