+       "DoubletFinder identifies doublets by generating artificial doublets
+from existing scRNA-seq data and defining which real cells preferentially
+co-localize with artificial doublets in gene expression space.  Other
+DoubletFinder package functions are used for fitting DoubletFinder to
+different scRNA-seq datasets.  For example, ideal DoubletFinder performance in
+real-world contexts requires optimal pK selection and homotypic doublet
+proportion estimation.  pK selection is achieved using pN-pK parameter sweeps
+and maxima identification in mean-variance-normalized bimodality coefficient
+distributions.  Homotypic doublet proportion estimation is achieved by finding
+the sum of squared cell annotation frequencies.")
