predmicror: Fitting Predictive Microbiology Models
Provides predictive microbiology model functions and convenience wrappers for fitting primary growth, microbial inactivation, dynamic, omnibus, and cardinal parameter models to experimental data using nonlinear least squares and related mixed-effects or time-varying workflows. Includes helper functions for extracting fitted values, calculating model diagnostics, and comparing fitted models. Implemented model families include those described by: Zwietering et al.
