nlmixr2autoinit: Automatic Generation of Initial Estimates for Population Pharmacokinetic Modeling

Provides automated methods for generating initial parameter estimates in population pharmacokinetic modeling. The pipeline integrates adaptive single-point methods, naive pooled graphic approaches, noncompartmental analysis methods, and parameter sweeping across pharmacokinetic models. It estimates residual unexplained variability using either data-driven or fixed-fraction approaches and assigns pragmatic initial values for inter-individual variability. These strategies are designed to improve model robustness and convergence in 'nlmixr2' workflows.
