Mixture latent variable models and non-linear latent variable models (Holst and Budtz-Joergensen (2020) ). The package also provides methods for graph exploration (d-separation, back-door criterion), simulation of general non-linear latent variable models, and estimation of influence functions for a broad range of statistical models.
