Description: Learning, manipulation and evaluation of mixtures of
        truncated basis functions (MoTBFs), which include mixtures of
        polynomials (MOPs) and mixtures of truncated exponentials
        (MTEs). MoTBFs are a flexible framework for modelling hybrid
        Bayesian networks (I. Pérez-Bernabé, A. Salmerón, H. Langseth
        (2015) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-20807-7_36>; H. Langseth, T.D.
        Nielsen, I. Pérez-Bernabé, A. Salmerón (2014)
        <doi:10.1016/j.ijar.2013.09.012>; I. Pérez-Bernabé, A.
        Fernández, R. Rumí, A. Salmerón (2016)
        <doi:10.1007/s10618-015-0429-7>). The package provides
        functionality for learning univariate, multivariate and
        conditional densities, with the possibility of incorporating
        prior knowledge. Structural learning of hybrid Bayesian
        networks is also provided. A set of useful tools is provided,
        including plotting, printing and likelihood evaluation. This
        package makes use of S3 objects, with two new classes called
        'motbf' and 'jointmotbf'.
