In JLPM: Joint Latent Process Models

#' Estimation of joint latent process models
#' 
#' Functions for the estimation of joint latent process models (JLPM).
#' Continuous and ordinal outcomes are handled for the longitudinal part,
#' whereas the survival part considers multiple competing events.
#' The likelihood is computed using Monte-Carlo integration. Estimation is achieved
#' by maximizing the log-likelihood using a robust iterative algorithm.
#'
#' Please report to the JLPM-team any question or suggestion regarding the package
#' via github only (https://github.com/VivianePhilipps/JLPM/issues).
