Description: In this package, we introduce Object Oriented Data
        Analysis (OODA) methods to analyze Human Microbiome taxonomic
        trees directly. We provide tools to model, compare, and
        visualize populations of taxonomic tree objects. In particular,
        using a unimodal probability measure in the set of trees, we
        provide procedures to compute the MLE of the central tree and
        the LRT statistics for comparing the distributions of two
        metagenomic populations. Our procedures have been developed to
        support parallel computations for comparing two groups.
