Description: 
    Intelligently assign samples to batches in order to reduce batch effects.
    Batch effects can have a significant impact on data analysis, especially
    when the assignment of samples to batches coincides with the contrast
    groups being studied. By defining a batch container and a scoring function
    that reflects the contrasts, this package allows users to assign samples in
    a way that minimizes the potential impact of batch effects on the
    comparison of interest. Among other functionality, we provide an
    implementation for OSAT score by Yan et al. (2012,
    <doi:10.1186/1471-2164-13-689>).
