Title: Nonlinear Mixed Effects Models of Epidemic Growth
Description: 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) <doi:10.1007/s11538-013-9918-2> and in Earn et al.
        (2020) <doi:10.1073/pnas.2004904117>.
