Provides tools to work with template code and text in R. It aims to
    provide a simple substitution mechanism for R-expressions inside these
    templates. Templates can be written in other languages like 'SQL', can
    simply be represented by characters in R, or can themselves be R-expressions
    or functions.

Helper functions for MASCOTNUM algorithm template, for design of numerical experiments practice:
    algorithm template parser to support MASCOTNUM specification <https://www.gdr-mascotnum.fr/template.html>, 
    'ask & tell' decoupling injection (inspired by <https://search.r-project.org/CRAN/refmans/sensitivity/html/decoupling.html>) 
    to use "crimped" algorithms (like uniroot(), optim(), ...) from outside R,
    basic template examples: Brent algorithm for 1 dim root finding and L-BFGS-B from base optim().

Performs maximum likelihood based estimation and inference on time to event data, possibly subject to non-informative right censoring. FitParaSurv() provides maximum likelihood estimates of model parameters and distributional characteristics, including the mean, median, variance, and restricted mean. CompParaSurv() compares the mean, median, and restricted mean survival experiences of two treatment groups. Candidate distributions include the exponential, gamma, generalized gamma, log-normal, and Weibull.

Analysis and visualization of data from temporal sensory methods, including for temporal check-all-that-apply (TCATA) and temporal dominance of sensations (TDS). Methods are mainly from manuscripts by Castura, J.C., Antúnez, L., Giménez, A., and Ares, G. (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.foodqual.2015.06.017>, Castura, Baker, and Ross (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.foodqual.2016.06.011>, and Pineau et al. (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.foodqual.2009.04.005>.

A collection of methods to estimate parameters of different tempered stable 
  distributions (TSD). Currently, there are seven different tempered stable 
  distributions to choose from: Tempered stable subordinator distribution, 
  classical TSD, generalized classical TSD, normal TSD, modified TSD, rapid 
  decreasing TSD, and Kim-Rachev TSD.
  The package also provides functions to compute density and probability 
  functions and tools to run Monte Carlo simulations.
  This package has already been used for the estimation of tempered stable 
  distributions (Massing (2023) <arXiv:2303.07060>).
