Description: Bayesian analysis of censored linear mixed-effects models that replace Gaussian assumptions with a flexible class of distributions, such as the scale mixture of normal family distributions, considering a damped exponential correlation structure which was employed to account for within-subject autocorrelation among irregularly observed measures. For more details, see Kelin Zhong, Fernanda L. Schumacher, Luis M. Castro, Victor H. Lachos (2025) <doi:10.1002/sim.10295>.
