Description: This package include functions related to following
        topics: 1. Information Theory: Shannon Entropy and
        Kullback-Leibler divergence for Multivariate Skew-Elliptical
        distributions.  2. Estimation of Growth models parameters (Von
        Bertalanffy, Gompertz, Logistic and Richards) using the robust
        ECME method via Heteroscedastic Nonlinear Regression Growth
        model with scale mixture of Skew-Normal distributions (Normal,
        T-Student, Skew-Normal and Skew-t). Include Bootstrap and
        Jackknife methods to estimate the Variance-Covariance matrix
        and Local Influence
