title: 'epigrowthfit: Nonlinear Mixed Effects Models of Epidemic Growth'
version: 0.15.3
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.epigrowthfit
abstract: 'Maximum likelihood estimation of nonlinear mixed effects models of epidemic
  growth using Template Model Builder (''TMB''). Enables joint estimation for collections
  of disease incidence time series, including time series that describe multiple epidemic
  waves. Supports a set of widely used phenomenological models: exponential, logistic,
  Richards (generalized logistic), subexponential, and Gompertz. Provides methods
  for interrogating model objects and several auxiliary functions, including one for
  computing basic reproduction numbers from fitted values of the initial exponential
  growth rate. Preliminary versions of this software were applied in Ma et al. (2014)
  <https://doi.org/10.1007/s11538-013-9918-2> and in Earn et al. (2020) <https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2004904117>.'
