Implement some models for
correlation/covariance matrices including two approaches
to model correlation matrices from a graphical structure.
One use latent parent variables as proposed in
Sterrantino et. al. (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2312.06289>.
The other uses a graph to specify conditional
relations between the variables.
The graphical structure makes correlation matrices
interpretable and avoids the quadratic increase of
parameters as a function of the dimension.
In the first approach a natural sequence of simpler
models along with a complexity penalization is used.
The second penalizes deviations from a base model.
These can be used as prior for model parameters,
considering C code through the 'cgeneric' interface
for the 'INLA' package (<https://www.r-inla.org>).
This allows one to use these models as building
blocks combined and to other latent Gaussian models
in order to build complex data models.
