#' @title Package to conduct two-stage analyses combining Latent Dirichlet 
#'   Allocation with Bayesian Time Series models
#'
#' @description Performs two-stage analysis of multivariate temporal data
#'   using a combination of Latent Dirichlet Allocation (Blei \emph{et al.}
#'   2003) and Bayesian Time Series models (Western and Kleykamp 2004) that we
#'   extend for multinomial data using softmax regression (Venables and Ripley
#'   2002) following Christensen \emph{et al.} (2018).
