A toolkit for working with Biological Observation Matrix ('BIOM') files. Features include reading/writing all 'BIOM' formats, rarefaction, alpha diversity, beta diversity (including 'UniFrac'), summarizing counts by taxonomic level, and sample subsetting. Standalone functions for reading, writing, and subsetting phylogenetic trees are also provided. All CPU intensive operations are encoded in C with multi-thread support.
