  <dc:title>Scale Mixture of Normal Distribution in Linear Mixed-Effects
Model</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package SMNlmec version 1.0.2</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Bayesian analysis of censored linear mixed-effects models that replace Gaussian assumptions with a flexible class of distributions, such as the scale mixture of normal family distributions, considering a damped exponential correlation structure which was employed to account for within-subject autocorrelation among irregularly observed measures. For more details, see Kelin Zhong, Fernanda L. Schumacher, Luis M. Castro, Victor H. Lachos (2025) &lt;doi:10.1002/sim.10295&gt;.</dc:description>
