Description: Many feature selection methods for a wide range of
        response variables, including minimal, statistically-equivalent
        and equally-predictive feature subsets. Bayesian network
        algorithms and related functions are also included. The package
        name 'MXM' stands for "Mens eX Machina", meaning "Mind from the
        Machine" in Latin. References: a) Lagani, V. and Athineou, G.
