<code>biopixR</code> - new patch: 0.2.1

hotfix patch

Our analysis uses two key filter functions, sizeFilter and proximityFilter, which can now be applied individually based on specific requirements. Evaluating the results of objectDetection, sizeFilter and proximityFilter is now easily done with resultAnalytics. Automation is a key feature - proximityFilter can now automatically calculate the radius and sizeFilter can automatically determine the limits. Code reliability is ensured by continuous integration checks using R-CMD-check for Ubuntu (other OS in progress). Also, the input format has been improved for better usability.
