title: 'predmicror: Fitting Predictive Microbiology Models'
version: 1.3.2
abstract: 'Provides predictive microbiology model functions and convenience wrappers
  for fitting primary growth, microbial inactivation, dynamic, omnibus, and cardinal
  parameter models to experimental data using nonlinear least squares and related
  mixed-effects or time-varying workflows. Includes helper functions for extracting
  fitted values, calculating model diagnostics, and comparing fitted models. Implemented
  model families include those described by: Zwietering et al. (1990) <https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.56.6.1875-1881.1990>,
