  <dc:title>Fast Computation of Latent Correlations for Mixed Data</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package latentcor version 2.0.2</dc:title>
  <dc:description>The first stand-alone R package for computation of latent correlation that takes into account all variable types (continuous/binary/ordinal/zero-inflated),
             comes with an optimized memory footprint, and is computationally efficient, essentially making latent correlation estimation almost as fast as rank-based correlation estimation.
             The estimation is based on latent copula Gaussian models.
             For continuous/binary types, see Fan, J., Liu, H., Ning, Y., and Zou, H. (2017).
             For ternary type, see Quan X., Booth J.G. and Wells M.T. (2018) &lt;doi:10.48550/arXiv.1809.06255&gt;.
             For truncated type or zero-inflated type, see Yoon G., Carroll R.J. and Gaynanova I. (2020) &lt;doi:10.1093/biomet/asaa007&gt;.
             For approximation method of computation, see Yoon G., Müller C.L. and Gaynanova I. (2021) &lt;doi:10.1080/10618600.2021.1882468&gt;. The latter method uses multi-linear interpolation originally implemented in the R package &lt;https://cran.r-project.org/package=chebpol&gt;.</dc:description>
