Description: Estimates generalized additive latent and mixed models
        using maximum marginal likelihood, as defined in Sorensen et
        al. (2023) <doi:10.1007/s11336-023-09910-z>, which is an
        extension of Rabe-Hesketh and Skrondal (2004)'s unifying
        framework for multilevel latent variable modeling
        <doi:10.1007/BF02295939>. Efficient computation is done using
        sparse matrix methods, Laplace approximation, and automatic
        differentiation. The framework includes generalized multilevel
        models with heteroscedastic residuals, mixed response types,
        factor loadings, smoothing splines, crossed random effects, and
        combinations thereof. Syntax for model formulation is close to
        'lme4' (Bates et al. (2015) <doi:10.18637/jss.v067.i01>) and
        'PLmixed' (Rockwood and Jeon (2019)
        <doi:10.1080/00273171.2018.1516541>).
