  <dc:title>Bayesian Transition Analysis with Markov Chain Monte Carlo</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package baytaAAR version 1.0.3</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Provides Bayesian age estimation for bioarchaeological skeletal 
    data using ordinal probit regression models implemented in 'JAGS' and 'NIMBLE'. 
    The package is designed to handle multiple ordinal traits of adult individuals
    and incorporates a Gompertz prior on age to reflect population-level mortality. 
    It accounts for estimation uncertainties and supports full customization of 
    model parameters and Markov Chain Monte Carlo settings. For more details
