infoxtr: Information-Theoretic Measures for Revealing Variable Interactions

Implements information-theoretic measures to explore variable interactions, including KSG mutual information estimation for continuous variables from Kraskov et al. (2004) <doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.69.066138>, knockoff conditional mutual information described in Zhang & Chen (2025) <doi:10.1126/sciadv.adu6464>, synergistic-unique-redundant decomposition introduced by Martinez-Sanchez et al. (2024) <doi:10.1038/s41467-024-53373-4>, and information imbalance gain following Del Tatto et al. (2024) <doi:10.1073/pnas.2317256121>, allowing detection of complex and diverse relationships among variables.
