		Bayesian Inference Using 'RTMB' // Provides tools for Markov
		chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and Maximum A Posteriori (MAP)
		estimation utilizing the 'RTMB' package. It supports various
		statistical models including generalized linear mixed models,
		factor analysis, item response theory, and multidimensional
		unfolding. The package allows users to easily transition
		between frequentist and Bayesian paradigms using a unified
		interface. Automatic differentiation and Laplace approximation
		follow Kristensen et al. (2016) doi:10.18637/jss.v070.i05, and
		MCMC sampling uses the No-U-Turn Sampler described by Hoffman
		and Gelman (2014) https://jmlr.org/papers/v15/hoffman14a.html.
