Description: The Evolutionary Rate Matrix is a variance-covariance
        matrix which describes both the rates of trait evolution and
        the evolutionary correlation among multiple traits. This
        package has functions to estimate these parameters using
        Bayesian MCMC. It is possible to test if the pattern of
        evolutionary correlations among traits has changed between
        predictive regimes painted along the branches of the
        phylogenetic tree. Regimes can be created a priori or estimated
        as part of the MCMC under a joint estimation approach. The
        package has functions to run MCMC chains, plot results,
        evaluate convergence, and summarize posterior distributions.
