		Computerized Adaptive Testing with Cognitive Diagnostic Models //
		A session-based engine for cognitive diagnostic computerized
		adaptive testing (CD-CAT), the application of adaptive testing
		to cognitive diagnosis models. Three models are supported: the
		deterministic inputs, noisy "and" gate (DINA), the
		deterministic inputs, noisy "or" gate (DINO), and the
		generalized DINA (GDINA) model. Item selection criteria include
		Kullback-Leibler (KL) information, posterior-weighted Kullback-
		Leibler (PWKL), modified posterior-weighted Kullback-Leibler
		(MPWKL), and Shannon entropy (SHE). Latent attribute profiles
		are estimated by maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), maximum a
		posteriori (MAP), or expected a posteriori (EAP). Content
		balancing, item exposure control, and shadow testing are
		configurable through constraint functions. The implemented
		methods follow Cheng (2009) doi:10.1007/s11336-009-9123-2 and
		de la Torre (2011) doi:10.1007/s11336-011-9207-7. Designed for
		real-time, item-by-item adaptive applications.
