# install.packages("devtools")devtools::install_github("pierdutt/cmgnd")cmgnd is an R package designed to analyse univariatedata with complex patterns, including asymmetry, multi-modality, andheavy tails. The package implements the univariate constrained mixtureof generalized normal distributions (cmgnd) model, allowing parameterconstraints to be applied globally or to specific subpartitions ofmixture components, thereby reducing model complexity and improvingestimation performance.
