Description: Additive and multiplicative effects models for both
        cross-sectional and longitudinal network analysis. The package
        provides two main functions: ame() for cross-sectional networks
        and lame() for longitudinal networks. It supports square and
        rectangular network structures. Key features include: (1)
        Cross-sectional network analysis via ame() with support for
        binary, continuous, ordinal, and count data; (2) Longitudinal
        network analysis via lame() with additive sender/receiver and
        multiplicative latent-factor effects that can evolve over time
        through AR(1) processes (Sewell and Chen (2015)
        <doi:10.1080/01621459.2014.988214>; Durante and Dunson (2014)
        <doi:10.1093/biomet/asu040>); (3) Handling of changing actor
        compositions across time periods in longitudinal models; (4)
        Performance improvements through C++ implementations via 'Rcpp'
        and 'RcppArmadillo'.
