Multitype

<code>Multitype</code> creates a multitype outcome object, usually used as a response variable in a
hierarchical Cyclops model fit.

This model fitting tool incorporates cyclic coordinate descent and
majorization-minimization approaches to fit a variety of regression models
found in large-scale observational healthcare data. Implementations focus
on computational optimization and fine-scale parallelization to yield
efficient inference in massive datasets. Please see:
