Implementation of Tobit type I and type II families for censored regression using the 'mgcv' package, based on methods detailed in Woods (2016) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2016.1180986>.

Contains functions to estimate a smoothed and a non-smoothed (empirical) time-dependent 
             receiver operating characteristic curve and the corresponding area under the receiver 
             operating characteristic curve and the optimal cutoff point for the right and interval 
             censored survival data. See Beyene and El Ghouch (2020)<doi:10.1002/sim.8671> and Beyene 
             and El Ghouch (2022) <doi:10.1002/bimj.202000382>.

Creates a common framework for organizing, naming, and gathering 
    population, age, race, and ethnicity data from the Census Bureau. Accesses 
    the API <https://www.census.gov/data/developers/data-sets.html>. Provides 
    tools for adding information to existing data to line up with Census data.

It fits finite mixture models for censored or/and missing data using several multivariate distributions. Point estimation and asymptotic inference (via empirical information matrix) are offered as well as censored data generation. Pairwise scatter and contour plots can be generated. Possible multivariate distributions are the well-known normal, Student-t and skew-normal distributions. This package is an complement of Lachos, V. H., Moreno, E. J. L., Chen, K. & Cabral, C. R. B. (2017) <doi:10.1016/j.jmva.2017.05.005> for the multivariate skew-normal case.

Provides tools to extract, label, and read microdata from the
    2022 National Census of Population, Households and Dwellings of Argentina
    stored in REDATAM databases officially distributed by INDEC. Implements
    a complete province-by-province extraction pipeline with efficient memory
    management, reconstruction of hierarchical identifiers, automatic variable
    labeling from official INDEC dictionaries, and integrity verification
    against published totals. Allows working with census data directly in R
    without knowledge of REDATAM syntax, and supports export to multiple
    formats including Parquet, CSV, SPSS and SAS. Census data must be
    downloaded directly from the official INDEC portal
    (<https://www.indec.gob.ar>). This package does not distribute census data.
