Description: Maximum-likelihood estimation of beta regression models
        for responses derived from bounded rating scales. Observations
        are treated as interval-censored on (0, 1) after a
        scale-to-unit transformation, and the likelihood is built from
        the difference of the beta CDF at the interval endpoints. The
        complete likelihood supports mixed censoring types: uncensored,
        left-censored, right-censored, and interval-censored
        observations. Both fixed- and variable-dispersion submodels are
        supported, with flexible link functions for the mean and
        precision components. A compiled C++ backend (via 'Rcpp' and
        'RcppArmadillo') provides numerically stable, high-performance
        log-likelihood evaluation. Standard S3 methods (print(),
        summary(), coef(), fitted(), residuals(), predict(), plot(),
        confint(), vcov(), logLik(), AIC(), BIC(), simulate()) are
        available for fitted objects.
