  <dc:title>Sparse Varying Coefficient BART with Global-Local Priors"</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package sparseVCBART version 1.0.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Fits sparse linear varying coefficient models (VCMs), 
    which assert a linear relationship between an outcome and several covariates 
    that is allowed to change as functions of additional variables known as effect modifiers. 
    Designed for high-dimensional settings where the number of covariates (i.e., number of slopes) 
    is comparable to or larger than the number of observations. 
    Approximates the coefficient functions using a version of Bayesian Additive Regression Trees 
    that can perform global-local shrinkage.
