abstract: Provide functions for performing abundance and compositional based binning
  on metagenomic samples, directly from FASTA or FASTQ files. Functions are implemented
  in Java and called via rJava. Parallel implementation that operates directly on
  input FASTA/FASTQ files for fast execution. Inputs may be file paths or Biostrings/ShortRead
  sequence objects; results are returned as a MetabinResult S4 object wrapping cluster
  assignments, algorithm parameters, and input metadata.
