SPINE — Scale Partitioning by Incremental Nested Entropy

SPINE takes a nonnegative measure over a collection of objects and cuts it into scale strata. It finds where the collection separates into distinct scales, and how strongly, without being told how many groups to look for and without a detection threshold to tune.

This package name is reserved for the Python implementation, which is under development against the published specification. Until it ships:

• Reference implementation (MATLAB): https://github.com/almomaa/entropy-spine
• Documentation and theory: https://almomaa.github.io/entropy-spine/

The repository carries language-independent conformance fixtures and an independent numerical oracle, so the Python implementation will be verified against the same contract as the MATLAB reference.
