Description: Provides Bayesian linear and generalized linear model fitting
    with independent and identically distributed (iid) posterior samples. The
    main functions mirror R's lm() and glm() interfaces while adding prior
    family specifications for Gaussian, Poisson, binomial, and Gamma models
    with log-concave likelihoods. Sampling for supported non-conjugate models
    uses accept-reject methods based on likelihood subgradients as in Nygren
    and Nygren (2006) <doi:10.1198/016214506000000357>. The package also
    includes tools for prior setup, posterior summaries, prediction,
    diagnostics, simulation, vignettes, and optional 'OpenCL' acceleration for
    larger models.
