abstract: 'A collection of functions to compute the Rao-Stirling diversity index (Porter
  and Rafols, 2009) <DOI:10.1007/s11192-008-2197-2> and its extension to acknowledge
  missing data (i.e., uncategorized references) by calculating its interval of uncertainty
  using mathematical optimization as proposed in Calatrava et al. (2016) <DOI:10.1007/s11192-016-1842-4>.
  The Rao-Stirling diversity index is a well-established bibliometric indicator to
  measure the interdisciplinarity of scientific publications. Apart from the obligatory
  dataset of publications with their respective references and a taxonomy of disciplines
  that categorizes references as well as a measure of similarity between the disciplines,
  the Rao-Stirling diversity index requires a complete categorization of all references
  of a publication into disciplines. Thus, it fails for a incomplete categorization;
  in this case, the robust extension has to be used, which encodes the uncertainty
  caused by missing bibliographic data as an uncertainty interval. Classification
