tlamadon/mopt: Parallel Derivative-free Moment Estimation

mopt is a suite of derivative-free MCMC optimization algorithms that can be used to find the maximum of an objective function. The package is designed with a particular focus on cases where this objective function is composed of moment conditions. This includes standard GMM as well as simulated method of moments or indeed any other moment-like estimation.
