acor.tune

A matrix with the compositional data.

The range of values of the power transformation to search for the optimal one.
If zero values are present it has to be greater than 0.

the type of correlation to compute, the distance correlation ("edist"),
the canonical correlation type 1 ("cancor1") or the canonical correlation
type 2 ("cancor2"). See details for more information.

Tuning of the alpha generalised correlations between two compositional datasets

Regression, classification, contour plots, hypothesis testing and fitting of distributions for compositional data are some of the functions included.
The standard textbook for such data is John Aitchison's (1986) "The statistical analysis of compositional data". Relevant papers include:
