Estimation of multivariate normal (MVN) and student-t data of 
 arbitrary dimension where the pattern of missing data is monotone.
 See Pantaleo and Gramacy (2010) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.0907.2135>.
 Through the use of parsimonious/shrinkage regressions 
 (plsr, pcr, lasso, ridge,  etc.), where standard regressions fail, 
 the package can handle a nearly arbitrary amount of missing data. 
 The current version supports maximum likelihood inference and 
 a full Bayesian approach employing scale-mixtures for Gibbs sampling.
 Monotone data augmentation extends this Bayesian approach to arbitrary 
 missingness patterns.  A fully functional standalone interface to the 
 Bayesian lasso (from Park & Casella), Normal-Gamma (from Griffin & Brown),
 Horseshoe (from Carvalho, Polson, & Scott), and ridge regression 
 with model selection via Reversible Jump, and student-t errors 
 (from Geweke) is also provided.

Requires rooted phylogeny as input and creates a table of genera, their monophyly-status, which taxa cause problems in monophyly etc. Different information can be extracted from the output and a plot function allows visualization of the results in a number of ways.

Functions for fitting monotone polynomials to data.
             Detailed discussion of the methodologies used can be
             found in Murray, Mueller and Turlach (2013)

An extended version of the nonparametric Bayesian monotonic regression procedure described in Saarela & Arjas (2011) <DOI:10.1111/j.1467-9469.2010.00716.x>, allowing for multiple additive monotonic components in the linear predictor, and time-to-event outcomes through case-base sampling. The extension and its applications, including estimation of absolute risks, are described in Saarela & Arjas (2015) <DOI:10.1111/sjos.12125>. The package also implements the nonparametric ordinal regression model described in Saarela, Rohrbeck & Arjas <DOI:10.1214/22-BA1310>.
